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)

Bouquet of shadows
Gift of leafy, rambling boughs
Breaking ridged rooflines

Again you are so lucky to go to the coast and shoot such fabulous weekend shots. My post tonight is also of leaf shadow on a wall.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, as mine just begins...off to work...

Hey Harriet said...

What a lovely shadow. It's a big natural wall mural! An ever-changing one! I wish I had a beach hut. Your shadow stomping ground looks like a fun place to hang out. A beautiful area you live in Gemma, and I love what you share of it here on your blog :)
