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)

A Paradise of Spring
Very pretty view!
Lovely capture and such beautiful clouds, Gemma! Spring has a little of everything, doesn't it? But then I guess that most seasons do. Hope you see lots of blue and lots of sunlight for the weekend! Enjoy!
