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)

Churning mystic pale auras

I can just smell the salty airs as the sea churns and boils. I love to walk the beach after a storm, so many treasures to be had...you are so fortunate to have it so close, it would constantly stimulate my imagination.

This is wonderful! Those really are rough seas. I love the beach but I've never been when the water looked like this. Great shot.
P.S. Did you forget to add your name to the list or did I just overlook it by mistake?

Hi Gemma, another lovely photo. There is incredible beauty looking at a stormy sea. Not when you're on it I suppose :)

Definitely pounding surf. I can almost hear them breaking.
