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)

Seashell Shadow


Seashell on Rosebud beach, Mornington Peninsula

Beauty cast on sands
Like an exile from the sea
Like a frame of life

Life Shells


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Early Good Friday morning we wandered Balnarring Beach on the Mornington Peninsula.
There we found this beautifull patterned shell, with a very much alive sea creature inside.
You can just see a little of him peeping out on the right.
