A river crossing from our recent trip up in the Gulf.

It is an entertaining photo effort with many flaws.  My sad effort, with many flaws, was a 30 second touch up as I couldn't be bothered doing much else.

There are several different water patterns in the original picture.

At least the water at the side of the camper is now at the same level as the front of the vehicle.  You could clearly see the water level at the CT wheel arch and at the rear was at a much lower level than the front, and a slight tyre wake from behind the CT indication it was moving.  As others commented there was no bow wave, yet vastly differerent water levels!

Yes I know a very poor effort.  I was just playing around with a simple app called 'flood app' to show how flood water could affect a building but thought I would give it a go on the car.  I think I will stick to photoshop though.

Still loved the comments from everyone.  Looks like we can't fool the clever myswaggers.

Yep that was me. We were on our way back to Sydney having travelled up to Darwin.  We stayed overnight at the Lost City. A magic spot with a magic sunset over the pillars.

I definitely recall your rig as I was commenting that you had my ideal touring setup if I won lotto. How is the conquer?

Love the Conqueror, it ticks most of our boxes for what we want in a trailer.

You were just pulling out of Lost City when I spotted the sticker. We were on the uphill run from Brisbane to Darwin at that stage.

Looks like it would be a good shot......
