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)

Nice shot.

The platforms look like they've just risen out of the water, ready to invade the land.

I like the movement of the water created by the wake contrasted with the peacefulness of the rest of the photo.

The white spikes of water are nice in this shot.
