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)

Lovely set of pinks... I forget how you are approaching spring, while we approach summer. Is that a dogwood? I photographed and then painted a dogwood in our spring.

I too have forgotten that in your corner of the world spring is what's rounding the bend.

I too like photographing pink houses or anything pink.

Have a good weekend.

Hey Gemma - do you know, I have a thing about pink houses. Ever since I was 12 and first read My Family and Other Animals by Gerald Durrell - they go to stay in a strawberry pink villa on Corfu. :)
