Ok, breaking the internet might be a stretch, but one well timed shot has brought our wide brown land to even greater prominence, being featured on the UK’s venerable BBC website and shared across a multitude of social media.

The photo was snapped by tourist Kelly Matthews was taken on a visit to the Northern Territory capital Darwin. Matthews was visiting the Top End for a wedding and was only made aware of the snap’s uncanny resemblance to Oz when friends on Facebook started commenting.

Several wags quickly commented that poor old Tasmania was once again omitted from the picture. We here at Travel Weekly are impressed nonetheless.
