THE AUSTRALIAN OUTBACK

The Australian "Outback" is the empty, remote, sparsely populated areas of inland Australia, it has no specific boundaries, but covers most of Inland Australia once you leave the populated coastal areas.
It may be a vast arid desert area or a picturesque view of a gnarled old gum tree beside a stoney creek.
It is also often referred to as “The Bush”.
It does not matter where you are in Australia, you will always find something beautiful.
These photos were taken at various locations.
