Devils Marbles

by on Aug.10, 2019, under Life, Photography

Heading north we’d arrived at the iconic Karlu Karlu Devils Marbles, believed by the Warmungu Aboriginal people to be the fossilised eggs of the Rainbow Serpent

The Devils Marbles are a collection of massive granite boulders strewn across a valley south of Tennant Creek. Standing at up to 6 metres high and formed over millions of years, they continue to crack and change

We’d be staying here the night in the campground at the back of the marbles

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.

This fantastic location also gave me the chance to spin up the drone again before sunset
