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)

Blue waters waiting

Are you holidaying near the Mornington Peninsula at the moment? Bit cold, I would have thought!

Lovely photos though.

That's a great view - Just the photo for a Scenic Sunday post!

This is the world where I live all year round! I guess it's a permanent holiday ~ at least when I get home from work!

I love it in all its moods and seasons!

I like the lace network of the leafless tree.

What a lovely place to live. (and even work,LOL!) The photo composition is particularly clever. Having a glimpse makes one want more and perhaps to visit... Regards from Jo, South Africa.
