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)

Wild sea weekend


Pics by Gemma Wiseman ~Dromana pier almost looks as if it is sinking in wild waves + Port Phillip Bay is usually calm, but this weekend, wild waters tumbled on the beach at Dromana, Mornington Peninsula

Wild seas and wild winds
Turmoil
Whirlpool
Chaos
Feast for
A yearning
Wild spirit

Great photos! It must be a nice experience watching those big waves. I love the last shot.

Rough sea indeed. We had few windy days last week, must be coming from the same trail of storm :)
