White Gums Reflections

White Gums Reflections

“White Gums Reflections” is a work of photographic art by renowned photographer Karl Monaghan. This image, bathed in the soft glow of the evening light, captures the majestic beauty of native Australian Gumtrees, their forms reflected in the tranquil waters of the Greenough River.

Situated just over 400 km north of Perth, the Greenough River is a waterway that has a vast catchment area of about 12,500 km², starting from its headwaters on the Yilgarn Plateau and winding its way for about 340 km through the Waterloo Range, finally meeting the Indian Ocean at Cape Burney.

The river is surrounded by a diverse landscape, transitioning from minimal use land in the upper (eastern) half of the catchment to unirrigated cropping land, with grazing more common closer to the coast. The lower section of the river, through Ellendale and Minnenooka, is often supplemented by groundwater, helping to maintain permanent pools.

The native Australian Gumtrees, or Eucalyptus trees, which are the star of this print, are known for their hardiness and ability to survive in a variety of climates and soils. They play an essential role in the Australian landscape, providing habitat for many species and holding cultural significance for Indigenous Australians. In the evening light, these trees take on a transformative quality, their white bark glowing against the dimming sky and their reflections dancing on the water’s surface.
