Bright yellow newly painted door on an old boatshed at Dromana beach Mornington Peninsula
An old character
Like a doorway to sunshine
New makeup for Spring

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)

Someone is Special
This is wonderful Gemma!
I love the beautifully vibrant yellow.
That's one of the brightest yellows I've ever seen! Good shot, Gemma. Your boat shed photos make me think of the dowdy, rundown Soviet-era boathouses on the shores of rivers and lakes in Russia. "People should have a boathouse and a boat, and should fish for their supper." (Imaginary Soviet ruling.)
