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)

for the gardener?...


odd little vehicle parked outside the entrance of Montalto vineyards, Red Hill...
From the rear view, it looks like a gardener's run about...


nifty little wheels
a useful tool to cover
 big spaces

thunder...


one of two sculptures ... complementing each other... on display at Montalto vineyards, Red Hill...
The dual art was called 'Thunder and Lightning'...
It is by Brendan Hackett and was a finalist in the 2016 Montalto Sculpture Competition......


thunder
 a wild kind of art selling
warning symbols


Somehow, I felt that these two elements were displayed a little too close together for ideal appeal...

well being...


this sign usually only appears at weekends - outside the Hummingbird Retreat at Red Hill...
It's an added feature to the restaurant and accomodation available there...
The well being centre offers a range of exercise classes including meditation and yoga...
(The sign even has a little handle at the top for ease of transport...)


well being
a priceless asset
in our lives

some rusty yellow...


old tank on a property at Red Hill...
I am not sure what this tank is or holds...
It appears to hold something dangerous, going by the small red sign on the side...


some rusty yellow
still serving
some valued purpose
