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)

A good subject and a charming picture. Looks a nice place to sit.

Sculpture is beguilingly "permanent."
That motorcycle reminds me of my own 30+ year-old "steed."
Thanks, Gemma- Aloha!

Great photos. I really like the light and shadows in the photos. The sun is dappling through the trees. It looks peaceful.

You can find my photos here if you have time.

Both very different, but both so attractive.

The garden, as well as the arbor/seat, looks so inviting. Nice photo!

I did Photo Hunt today, too. I hope you get a chance to visit and leave your link. :)
