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)

minus the summer crowds...


view of the foreshore at Anthony's Nose on Port Phillip Bay...
In summer, the grassy area in the foreground is filled with campervans...


minus the summer crowd
winter shadows are free
to play

a view of Port Phillip Bay waters at Anthony's Nose...


barely a ripple
when waters are content to
laze in the sun

Cloud Art


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ A section of the Nepean Highway that curves around Anthony's Nose by Port Phillip Bay, Mornington Peninsula.
A popular boat launching ramp is here - hence the trailers lined up on the left of the photo.
And I love the dramatic cloud formations hanging like some alien space craft over the roadway.
