Stefan Eberhard, Great Southern Scarp (PLACES 2025)

For millions of years Southern Ocean swells have been crashing against the Nullarbor limestone platform, carving a dramatic coastline of cliffs and coastal landforms. Small pocket valleys dissect the slope running down to meet the shoreline and funnel the early morning sea mist as it is blown gently inland. This view is looking west at dawn, the light and sea mist strongly accentuating the repetition in coastal landform shapes and weathering processes. This Great Southern Scarp which includes the famous Bunda Cliffs nearby in the Nullarbor National Park, extends for ~850 km and is thought to be the longest continuous escarpment in the world.
