Umbrellas slowly are appearing - at least occasionally - on Dromana beach.
But they won't appear this week!
Rain all week is forecast!

I measure out my life with haiku. My camera films my soul. ~ Gemma Wiseman
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)

I will take a yellow flowers one, thank you very much. It has lots more personality than the hum-drum of the other two. Still, the three of these together are a nice sight for eyes on a cold and chilly morning in Virginia. Sorry about the rain forecast....but we always need rain.Maybe next week they will reappear. genie
Awww, that looks inviting! You are lucky now to be coming into the warmer weather!
Such a beautiful place by the water. The colors of the umbrellas compliment each other very well. Great job!
Time for a different sort of umbrella for the rain, so I'm glad you captured these when you did, Gemma.
