MarcoC travel and wildlife photography

On this page you will find the most beautiful and exciting photos from my trip to Australia in November 2024.
I will not proceed in chronological order, but will divide everything by location and region

Alice Springs and Northern Territory

I try to be as neat and clear as possible.
In the photo below you can see one of the most unique and impressive places I have stopped at on my journey: Curtin Spring Station, located on the Lesseter Highway (the famous road that leads to Uluru).
There are only three petrol stations on the way from Alice Springs to the sacred mountain.
Curtin Springs is one of them.

Curtin Spring Station, Lesseter Highway, Australia

Despite the rest stops and countless rest areas you will find first on the Stuart Highway and then on the Lesseter Highway, it's impossible not to stop every now and then to take a few photos of these wonderful and colourful landscapes.
Australia is unique and magnificent.
There's no doubt about it.
...and it's even more beautiful in person than in photos!

Endless Australian Roads

Mount Conner

If you are travelling on Australian roads, you will inevitably notice the legendary road trains, the Australian trucks that transport 3 or even 4 trailers. Always give way to them, because they take up a lot of space and if you have to overtake them, you should allow plenty of time, because they really are very long

In addition to the beautiful and endless Australian roads, I also discovered the divine resting places on my journey through this marvellous country. Colours, scents, silence and sometimes even incredible wildlife.
In the photo below you can see a rest area immersed in the red desert and trees. A true wonder!

A few photos of Uluru, the sacred mountain. One from a distance with the road signs and the other up close.
These days I have travelled many, many kilometres in the infinite silence of the Northern Territories of Australia.
Sun, silence, beauty and intense flavours.
Great!

Australian wildlife

One of the main reasons I dreamed of going to Australia was the incredible wildlife that this country has in contrast to the rest of the world.
I was planning to stay longer in Tasmania, where there is a huge variety of wildlife and my favourite animal: the Tasmanian devil. The same goes for Alice Springs and the Northern Territory, where the many uninhabited areas give way to wild nature.
I found so many cute and incredible inhabitants of Australia and endemic species that deserve attention.
A true wonder!
