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 am stuck to pick the one I like best, so I'll take the lot. Just wrap them.

I believe I got here before you got to mine! I can hardly believe it!

I like your wired sky. The darkness at the top gives it so much drama.

A really lovely series for Sky Watch. I do like the silhouette the wires add as well.

Great shots. I like the wires in them. It's the art in the middle of the photos.

Wires off get in the way in many photo images but you have composed these so well.
They have a vintage feel. I just looked at your sepia image so maybe that's part of what I'm feeling.
Awesome shots!
It was wonderful catching up here.

Hi Gemma. I like your sunset at twilight. It is just very interesting in what we cannot see here.
Your Haiku poem is neat, it tells us what you want us to see.
Thanks for your visit to my mountains and for your nice comment, Happy Skywatching.
:-)

Great, great photos. I like the way you took the wires - which could have been a distraction - and made them not only part of the beauty of the photo but the focus of the viewer's attention.

Stunning photos. The colours are amazing. I am never tired of watching sunsets. And yours is one of those calming and serene sunsets I could watch forever. Beautiful.
Happy skywatching and have a nice weekend.

So mystical, Gemma! Great captures!

Even wires can look great from the right angle.

I like your pictures of all the different views of a sunset - even the wires look relaxed. Beautiful poetry too!

Hi Gemma, these are lovely photographs. The telephone poles and lines give them another dimension. Thank you for sharing.
