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)

Sailing the skies together

NOTE: I do not tint my photos.
I use sepia or monochrome for specific memes and that is all.
If ever I would choose to do this, I will say so.
I prefer Nature's beauty.

Lovely drive by shots. I always enjoy watching the sky with electric posts included in the view.

I also played TWTW at www.ewok1993.wordpress.com.

Happy weekend

Nice coloration to those clouds - are they 'natural' or 'tinted' ;-)

Wow, so dramatic! I love a cloudy sky, so much more interesting than plain blue. Thanks for sharing these with us!

Hmm, those could almost be Ohio wintry skies, too. Though I'm guessing your winter is still a bit warmer than ours. Lovely series of shots.
