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)

A red volcanic passion
Rumbling and bursting

"A red volcanic passion"--What a phrase--I can feel the red--Great shot of the art room sign--so welcoming..

Mosaics always fascinate me.
So right that the art room should be represented in this way.
Even better of you to catch it and share.

Great shot, mosaics are so cool.

Ralph said...

The tiles on that mosaic are really cool. The tiles and artwork give the viewer the sense of depth, almost a 3-D look. And a mosaic a colorful and welcoming to the business. Nice!

I love this mosaic! And being that it's "Ruby Room" makes it even MORE perfect for your Ruby Tuesday [thanks for the visit and the comment today on my HoT!]

I love how the dark on top makes the mosaic more dramatic!

Mojo said...

I've never even been able to imagine having the patience to do mosaics. Guess that's why I stick to photography, eh?
Very striking shot.

Hey Harriet said...
