The Birdsville Hotel, an icon of ‘the Bush” and a must-see for Outback travellers.
When this image was taken there weren’t too many tourists in Birdsville, floodwaters having cut off all the roads into town.
As a photograph it was a bit of a struggle too – overcast skies, no people and drab colours.
It was hardly the usual scene with a dozen or so dusty four-wheel-drives parked out the front and the bar was empty too.
I hope this tells the story though.

Hard to imagine the Pub looking like a ghost town.. lucky you can still fly in..
Enjoying the views, Peter..
