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)

The image is almost monochromatic. It's cool feeling and a bit intimidating, for some reason. Like I would not want to be there alone. Sea spirits, perhaps? ;-)
