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)

Wow, that yellow umbrella really stands out. Makes it easy to find your spot after you've left to take a swim. Happy Mellow Yellow Monday:)

If I could borrow your yellow umbrella I would put it over my head when I gout to refill the bird feeders on this very snowy day! A lovely setting you have to use yours at.

Colorful umbrellas on the beach are part of the fun of going there. It just makes visiting the beach seem like a celebration.

I like how that yellow umbrella is in the middle of the two blue ones. And then there is that blue see too. Nicely framed photo.
