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)

Heavenly Sorbet


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Soft Spring skies over Dromana beach, Mornington Peninsula.
These photos were taken round this time in 2008.
Lately, our skies have been rather plain or filled with grey rain showers.
Not a friendly place to take a camera.

Like puffs of soft cream
Dusted with icing sugar
Heavenly dessert

I think it's a good thing to do : to look back at lovely skies when the current sky is grey and full of rain.
