Gum tree bark
Not a local native, this Eucalypt has been planted on a Crystal Brook roadside. The last layer of bark is beginning to split to uncover the next layer.
An ant is climbing up the tree trunk, but you will need to see the full
sized photo to appreciate that; detail on the right.

Patterns in a wheat crop
You will need to view the larger image (by clicking on the photo) to see the pattern more clearly. This was taken shortly after sunrise; I had to wait quite a few minutes before the sun cleared a cloud bank.

Spring crops
A detail from the photo on the left
Lowering sunlight on ripening cereal crops. Different shades of colour indicate different varieties or types of crops.

Beginning of the Flinders Ranges
Crystal Brook is sometimes called "Where the Flinders begin". It is apt. North of Crystal Brook the ranges have a different character than those to the south, even though they are, geologically, all part of the same formation.

Rocky River valley
A detail from the photo on the left
The Rocky River is one of three main streams that pass close by Crystal Brook.

Crystal Brook silos 2
The lowering sunlight, the gum tree leaves on the left, the diagonal line of the grain shoot, all make for an interesting composition.

The platform is balanced by the flood lamp in this composition. The lighting is also an essential part of the photo.
