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)

Illusory View


Yesterday, Year 9 and 4 teachers (including moi) travelled to Phillip Island in Westernport Bay to observe examples of eco tourism.
This is a view of the approach to the island.
On the left is the arching bridge linking mainland and island.
As I photographed it through the bus window, I noted I caught the reflected shape of the bus driver and segments of street views on the other side of the bus.
The reflection looked like some framed art hanging in an outdoor gallery!

Reflection and view
Slender arching linking bridge
Strange transparency

Frankston Bridge


A little walkway bridge by the Frankston foreshore, Mornington Peninsula which crosses Kannanook boating channel.

Simply designed arch
Boat activity viewpoint
Small but effective


Another perspective

Miniature Bridge


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ In a Dromana garden is this strange little bridge, featured as a piece of garden art.
It looks like a bridge in miniature.

Easy Rider


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ On a beautiful sunny day yesterday, I decided just to walk the streets of Dromana and enjoy the rush of Spring in the air after endless days of rain!
Near the long arched span across the Mornington Peninsula freeway, I saw a woman in one of these motorised "personal people movers" scoot around the bends of the on ramp and then start heading across the high arch over four lanes of traffic!
