Unwanted fence

Unwanted fence
Having flown over Lake Machattie and seeing it in flood, it was no great surprise to see that the road north from Birdsville to Bedourie had been closed (see PiP 1). Along the way on the detour we could see sunshine reflecting from the lake. (PiP 2).

Wishing everyone a Happy Fence Friday and a great weekend to follow.

Une clôture peut être indésirable mais la prise de vue avec cette profondeur et cette vue dégagée est vraiment fascinante. Les Pips sont remarquables.

HFF, George. What exactly are penalty units?
9 months ago.
tiabunna club has replied to Stephan Fey club
Thanks, Stephan. From Wiki: A penalty unit ( PU) is a standard amount of money used to compute penalties for many breaches of law in Australia at both the federal, and state and territory level. Fines are calculated by multiplying the value of a penalty unit by the number of units prescribed for the offence.

Quite an extra distance for the detour by the looks of it George (187km versus 540km?). HFF and best wishes for the weekend.

Thanks David, it could have been worse - looking at my maps, there was only about 60km additional distance. HFF.

In this vast landscape and with the flooding I can imagine the detour not being a short one George. Love the red tones against the blue sky. The signs are interesting with the road closure being temporary but the permanent one suggest to me there might be road issues here regularly?
It also surprised me that there are no distances on the board.

A beautifully recorded series George. HFF and have a good weekend

tiabunna club has replied to Ecobird club
Thanks for your kind comments, Carol. As far as the sign about the road closures, i must admit I was very impressed by the presentation, even without distances, much clearer than most States here provide. HFF and have a great weekend.

Ecobird club has replied to tiabunna club
You are right of course George and the sign looks modern and impressive. Even without distances it does give a clear picture of the road conditions ahead. We might be used to seeing distances set out but our diversion signs can be pretty poor and badly marked with no idea of what lies ahead - which is generally a queue of traffic!!!!!

Thank you for the information George. I do love your wide open spaces I must say

Happy Sunday

Not good if that was your destination. As Carol above says -I guess there can be some very long detours in that neck of the woods.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb

tiabunna club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Thanks, Herb. As I replied to David, there was only about 60km added distance on the run to Bedourie, our next stop. But yes, sometimes it can be far more disruptive when there is no alternative route. HFF and have a great weekend.

Hi George
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition
But, for us we have no real concept of those vast distances the diversion would need!
Best Wishes, (slightly late) HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
