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)

Pale mystic silvers
Limp waters lost in secrets
Like breathing mirrors

Lovely mist. Hard to remember sometimes that it's just getting cold down there since it's just getting warm up here!

Nice atmospheric shot with the incoming sea "fret", fog makes everything look different doesn't it?
