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)

Beautiful cloud formations. The summer ones have greater character than the winter ones do.

Gorgeous summer skies. They make me breath in deeply, close my eyes to dream, then open them again to take another good look.

Beautiful sky photos. I like the first two......as my eyes move across the photo, it's as if the clouds are moving...great photo!

Just dropped my camera, Canon Powershot 520 and fear I need a new one, that uses the litle blue Sandisk, downloadable photos.
What camera do you use?
