What colours does Uluru change?
Uluru's real colour is orange-red ochre. However, it can appear to change colour at different times of day and according to the weather conditions. In the normal light of day, from a distance, it takes on a browner hue. At sunrise, it has a more orange-yellow appearance, whilst at sunset, it can appear to glow a vivid red, or be a dusky-red in appearance. On an overcast day, Uluru's colour is more subdued, turning to a sandy brown colour. On the occasions when it rains, the entire rock becomes silvery-grey in appearance.The different angles of morning sun and late afternoon sun reflect differently off the surface of Uluru and interact with the different soil colours surrounding it. It is largely a matter of the atmospheric conditions, and how the moisture levels in the air and any clouds reflect the surrounding desert colours back onto Uluru.
