Many thanks for all the positive comments. I like testing-the-water on here with new images as I find the feedback is fair and constructive.
one iota, I also was prepared to be underwhelmed. This site was not perfect but just OK. There are not many decent vantage points around Uluru where you can freely walk, drive and set up a tripod. I shared this location with around 200 to 300 others. The tripod was on the roof of my 4WD camper with the camera running shooting a sequence over about two hours while I was cooking on a small stove.
During my two month trip (7,200 KM driving) around Australia, a number of hyped locations were very disappointing. I am glad to have had the experience of Australia but I won't go back. With the collapse in the value of the GBP Australia is very expensive country for brits to visit.
