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)

Ruby Vehicles and Riders


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ A ruby gathering at Dromana, Mornington Peninsula
A 7 Eleven red trailer for hire conveniently happened to be in the background and one of the bike riders conveniently had a splash of red on his jacket! But the photo was really about the ruby bike parked at the service station!

When you stopped by you mentioned the Tibetan Mandalas. Just click on the link for an excellent article and some beautiful examples.

Red is my favorite color. I wonder if I can find something red and join this meme. :-)

I was thinking the same thing... that it's way early for Ruby Tuesday, but then it occurred to me that it probably is Tuesday in your part of the world already!

Happy R/T... in advance. Sort of.

A red motorcycle seems faster just because it's RED. An odd view, but I'm sticking to it!

What Ralph said! :)
Great catch.
Love the music today...

Looks like they had a beautiful sunny day for their ride.

Nice catch.

Funny how firemen's vehicles seem to be red everywhere in the world.

Funny how all of that red seemed to converge in one spot!
