?: @krystlejwright // Completely filled only three times in the past 150 years, Australia's 9500 sq. km salty "dead heart" - which comprises Lake Eyre North and Lake Eyre South - is devoid of vegetation. Before the advent of GPS, explorers of this expanse of white could only navigate by compass, as if they were at sea. As a photographer, the aerial viewpoint always offer a unique perspective looking down on the unique environment of the Australian Outback. #SeeAustralia #outback #saltlake
