This is just one of the pristine sanctuaries within Karijini National Park Western Australia that have remained virtually untouched over the years because of the difficulty in accessing this spectacular place. To enter this secluded chamber you have to manoeuvre through the narrow neck of the canyon, under a two-metre wide rock that is wedged above the waterfall. From the top it is impossible to see what is going on below so a leap of faith is required to drop into the waterspout and allow yourself to be launched over the falls into the emerald waters below. Once committed to the spout there is no turning back – you have to stay the course. The only way out of this magnificent place, is to jump off more waterfalls and swim a couple of kilometres through breathtaking gorges, then scramble up a rock slop to get out of the gorges. I love this shot because it reminds me what wonderful places we can discover on our adventures if we can overcome our fears and commit ourselves to the journey of life.
