The Apostles
Some of the 12 Apostles.
The foremost one in this picture toppled only a few weeks later.
A picture of the aftermath can be found on flickr at www.flickr.com/photos/emptybelly/128066236/

Thanks for the visit, comment and the pre-collapse picture!! here are the pictures for others to see if they so choose....
and the collapsed version
I first saw these on bluewave's photos , its a lovely place, and I should imagine very popular!
beautiful scene. it looks like a wonderful place.
So nice you have the "before' shot too - looks like a beautiful place!
Thanks all. It is indeed a wonderous and beautiful place. We started out early in the morning from the South Australian end, and it would have been somewhere around 10ish by the time we got to this formation.
Very spectacular in person.
Nice shot -- bevor -- I enjoyed the Great Ocean Road in 1959 I get even the whole London Bridge.
beautiful shot of this majestic place! too bad one has been toppled.
Gorgeous view. Too bad about the toppled one. Guess Earth isn't done forming yet, eh?
Thanks Tideswimmer.
Those oceans are ravenous things ;)
great shot. i loved the great ocean road when i visited oz (before and after the collapse of one of hte apostles!)
love the place, had never been there, but the history behind it and the fact that the Judas has toppled now, make this more special
Thanks drgillybean and ZenStation.
It's a great place to visit, I'm sure I'll get back there again one day.
