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)

Jet Ski Season


On the one day when there was a sign of Summer, the jet skies were humming on the waters of Port Phillip Bay.
This photo was taken at Safety Beach when one jet ski decided to rest in the late afternoon light.

Jet ski mania
Carve a watery race track
Holiday for some

It's almost Winter up here, the warm days of jet skis long behind us. Such is the seasonal changes we face. It seems as if this couple need a break to slow down - if only for a moment...

What could be better than a jet ski splashed with generous doses of red?

CLAD IN RED

Whenas in red my Julia’s clad,
Then, then (methinks) she’s wicked bad—
Like Hester Prynne, but not so sad.

Next, when I cast mine eyes and see
Those crimson skirts flow full and free,
Her sweet seductions taketh me!


(With apologies to Robert Herrick, 1591-1674)
