An aerial view of Kata Tjuṯa, also known as the Olgas, located about 365km southwest of Alice Springs, NT.

Congratulations to this week’s AG Flickr group member Richard Rydge, for his AG Reader Photo of the Week, ‘Kata Tjuṯa‘.

“This was taken on a helicopter tour during a day trip to King’s Canyon,” says Richard.

“On the day of the flight we detoured past Kata Tjuṯa, and then on the following day walked through it during a rainstorm. Waterfalls were running down the peaks and torrents of water rushing through gorges. Even our guide was delighted by this rare event.”
