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)

Quiet Beauty


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ I took this lovely country scene in Red Hill, Mornington Peninsula.
This was on one of my many Spring walks in October 2008.

Silent line of trees
Quietly inspiring life
Almost unnoticed

Nice photo! That must've been a nice, peaceful walk. I like how the tree line and fence extend back and slightly down.
