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)

I like how it falls on the table. You almost don't notice that at first! Great shot Gemma.

Methinks it criss-crosses my eyes...all the same I would gladly sit there in a stuper by the sea, warm breezes and this wonderful music wrapping me around the fantasies in my mind.

Hope your Sunday was magical friend.

Hey Harriet said...

Oh my eyes have gone a bit criss-crossy looking at this also. Or maybe it's due to the few too many alcoholic beverages I had last night ;)

Great shot and the haiku is very cool! Hope you're having an awesome Sunday :)

Gazebos always bring to mind lovers. The trellis shadows look like tiny x's and o's to me. A little SSS Love.

This pit stop looks inviting. And being by the sea is an added plus. I can just imagine myself sitting there listening to the waves. Nice shot!
