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)

Rippling laterals and white crests

Great picture - can see the different textures. Love the way you have caught the surf - it looks like a mini cliff-face.

I like that little clump of seaweed - it brings your eye around to the rest of the picture. So nice!

'Pulses of the sea' - I love that!
I went for a drive in my mountains yesterday but this so reminds me of days by the ocean that I miss.
