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)

A very soft light. I think that is the kind of winter I would have preferred.
Oh wow! What a magnificent golden orange glow. Spectacular!
Wordless poetry, soundless music - those gilded clouds!
The photos are so pleasing. . . the soft sunlight slowly retreating from the sky made for some great shots. Really great.
Gemma, that is a superb sunset with a gold lining. Just great!
Amazing shots of the sunset,
the title is so good - the first that fell into my thoughts when looking at the images was how soft the clouds was :)
Beautiful series of shots...
That sunset takes my breath away...
