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)

Is this high tide? I'm surprised to see no sea gulls. ;)

Nice! Depending on how big those stones are, I can see myself sitting there, pants legs rolled up with my feet in the water.

I was going to ask for the birds too. I'm too spoiled in seeing birds when there's rock :D

Have a great day.

Those rocks take your breath away, Gemma. As does your photography. And, of course, I love your haiku. You are quite talented, Roland
