Pilbara Gems: River

There are many places to camp in the Pilbara, if you are prepared to battle the rocks, the spinafex and the lack of shade. But we were delighted to discover camping in the riverbed is nearly like camping on the east coast - there is shade! 

For a weekend away, I strongly recommend finding a river and driving down it, respecting all signs, gates and fences of course, and finding a nice waterhole. You may even find a dragon fly among the peacefulness!

Sleepy dragonfly - here's a tip, photograph dragonflies in the morning! They are really sluggish. Betsy (EOS 50D) f/5.6 1/200, 200mm ISO 500
