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)

You've got quite an eye Gemma!
I can see your vision but I wouldn't have seen it on my own.
Lovely image and thoughts!

That water is gorgeous. I love your Morning salts photo too, with the long shadows and the silver edged water. Beautiful :)

Oh I love it. Not just for that beautiful blue water but great perspective, not looking where you're going but what you're leaving behind.
