Western Australian Desert

A matter of urgency at the moment is the WA Government sanctioned sacrifice of Australian Aboriginal rock engravings on the Burrup Peninsula for the petrochemical industry

I am therefore including a self portrait from the Burrup in 1987 and 4 images I have not previously shown - it seemed wrong

Mount Goldsworthy, Pilbara - This was originally a mountain

Split Rock, Pilbara

Aboriginal Rock Engravings

Shadow Self Portrait, Burrup

The last is the "Gregory Stone", presumably following the Gregory Expedition of eighteensomething The depiction is very literal and describes a horse & rider and boot-deformed feet. Australian Aboriginal feet are broad, earth grasping feet - There is a 5x4" image of this rock, but as it could possibly betray the location, I am not showing it
