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)

Simmering tensions
Ingrained grey moods and motions
Like a cloudy brow

What portentous attitude, indeed!! I love this shot. The cockatoos in sepia are wonderful as well. Of course, I'm partial since I rescue parrots n 'toos!
