VH-LFP Departing Coober Pedy, I took a bit of a scenic lap around the town. In the bottom right corner you have the golf course and race track which are basically surrounded by opal mine sites. You can also see that in the small hills around the place that houses are actually dug into the ground- much cooler in summer! [EOS 350D + EF 17-40L] (mehr von VH-LFP)
Overview of most of the Coober Pedy airport. A nice airport which is surrounded by mine sites and is serviced 6 times a week by Rex. [EOS 350D + EF 17-40L]

VH-LFP c/n 28R-7135040. A few stars can be seen in the pitch black night. It was also a little bit breezy too but the windsock doesnt show much movement. [EOS 350D + EF 17-40L] (mehr von VH-LFP)
