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)

Oh what a nice collection of shadows you have in your home. So many cool shapes in that shot! You're moving in December? Well, I'll miss seeing all the wonderful scenes of your local area, but look forward to discovering the beauty of your new location in your photos :)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend Gemma!
