Flight
over Bungle Bungles in the Kimberleys

These
strange striated formations have been caused by the strong wind erosion
whistling
around the sandstone rocks



The
striations are caused by algae protecting the softer rock in the original
sediment layers

Streams
which become ranging torrents slow out of this eroded plateau during the wet

The
wind erodes the plateau giving a wave formation, as if eroded by
The
sea as it crashes on the shore
