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)

Window Within a Window


My lounge-room window looking on the front entrance path and reflecting a little of the view from the opposite window.
There are hints of the waters of Port Phillip Bay.
Best seen if you know they should be there.
