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)

Great pictures. They are quite minimalist, but that makes them enigmatic. And wonderful.
Happy skywatching:-)

Yes, a mysterious sky, appropriate for Halloween. Strange, it never occurred to me that "down under" the Holydays we think of as essential to Spring are for you in Autumn.

Mysterious and very lovely captures, Gemma! It does seem strange for us here to think of Easter in the autumn! Perfect words as always! Happy Easter, my friend! Have a great weekend!
