This delightful vertical segment captures a slice of the Kimberley escarpment where it meets an inlet of the sea. A blue sky brushed with cloud sweeps down to meet the edges of majestic cliffs. Over the face of the rock, streams of crystal-clear water curve and drop into the saltwater below. The inlet shallows to a sandbar in the foreground, punctuated by a scattering of tiny green mangrove shoots. Though saltwater crocodiles are occasionally seen here (a reminder of the essential wildness of this region), it is otherwise a picture of incredible calm, more than living up to its name. This is the Kimberley in one of its most beautiful poses!
