THE MEANING OF AUTUMN
AUTUMN is the bridesmaid of Summer and the flowergirl of Winter
AUTUMN whispers the tones of yesterday in a minor key
AUTUMN is an introspective season, when stray thoughts of the mind dive into the mystique of the soul
- Gemma Wiseman
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)

Perfect Watery photo. Well captured. Mine's up too.
Wonderful. Glad you kept the original coloring.
Beautiful photo of the beautiful seagull on the water.
He has a nifty little shadow too...isn't it funny that we see the shadows in every shot these days, thanks to Tracey.
The roses are just fabulous, what ruby red. The flowers and avian antics make your world just an exotic paradise to me. Don't know about you, but I just can't go anywhere without my camera, what did we ever do without digital...and the internet...wow, how did we survive??? I guess we just waited for the mailman to deliver that wonderful letter from a love or a friend...simpler, slower times.
Have a wonderful week friend!...and hugs!

Very lovely photo. And I am also glad you kept the original color.
that little seagull seems lost.:D
Placid bird - recharging the raucous store.
Peaceful shot ... I like it!!
He's all alone out there - I wonder where his friends are? Poor thing
wow what a lonesome bird swimming alone. she's so cute looking inviting someone for a swim.
Nice capture of that early morning light. :-)
I wonder what those silver gray dreamings are!
And a tardy sunrise is such a cool way to describe it!
tardy sunrise, indeed! a lovely image...
Looks peaceful and serene and I like the lighting as well1
