A Partial Eclipse

After a couple of weeks off, I am back. It wasn't that I didn't was ignoring you all, but our recent move left us without internet. Who would have thought that a cyclone that hit over 3600 kilometers away would have knocked out our Broadband Mobile service in Perth? But things are back up and running, we are settled into our new home, and I am ready to play!
This week's PhotoHunt theme is silhouette.

It is impossible to visit Litchfield National Park in Australia's Northern Territory without calling in to see the famous termite mounds. The early morning is an ideal time to visit the amazing fortresses that are considered Mother Nature's Bioreactors. To see more pictures and read about these impressive structures you can read my previous blog here
