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)

Mystique of a Wintry Sunset


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ In a burst of winter sunset light after a rainy, grey day, kookaburras and my dear partner created a stunning moment.
Notice, in the central photo, the strange light playing round my partner's head.
