AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Breath of the Sea

That's My World Tuesday #5
~
In recent posts, I have shown the world of vineyards and the beautiful village of Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula. But always, I love to return to the sea. In fact, each weekend I return here to feel the moods of the sea. So, it is time to show another mood of the sea again! Any weather, fishermen are to be found at the end of this pier, both night and day.

I must breathe by the sea again
By the moody sea and the sky
And all I ask is a dream or two
And wings to fly by

Gemma: What a neat look at your world of the ocean and a beautifully written post.

I love the moods of the sea, too. That first picture is wonderful. And I can't believe people go out and fish with that kind of water. But it must be worth it or they wouldn't continue doing it?

Beautiful post.

Wow, that sea looks angry. It looks like it's going to swell and overtake that pier. Love the shots! :-)
