 These rocks are part of a complexity of rocks and caves which once sheltered a notorious bushranger (bandit, outlaw) and his horse. Captain Melville, the bushranger for whom the caves are named, was able to see for miles from the top of the mountain on which they are situated. He was eventually captured and was strangled to death in jail.

I can't really pick out a main subject. The foreground rock is in shadow and the background rocks are blown out. The rocks are interesting, but it looks like a fill flash may have helped the exposure.
