The Castle, Breakways Reserve, South Australia

Canon EOS 400D | EF 18-55mm | f/16 | 1/13sec | Cokin A120 |

There's not many things that get me out of bed at 5:30am. A good sunrise though will do it. :D I think I saw more sunrises in the last 3 months than in the past 28 years. Definitely good for the soul!

This place is in the middle of nowhere - just past a little town called Coober Pedy - a place so hot the locals dig their houses into the ground.

They filmed parts of Mad Max III and Pitch Black around here. It definitely has an otherworldly feel to it. The Lonely Planet descibes it, quite appropriately, as looking like the end of the world.

I think it's amazing how desolate this place is; great composition.
