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)

Beautiful rainy of yellows! Great shot here Gemma. Thanks for the visit.

Marie Reed said...

and hopefully more lights than tears my poetic friend! (well.. I guess that the tears are referring to the rain:)

I love rainy days and the yellow in the picture seems to brighten it up

I see that yellow truck.. it is hard for me to imagine that you are starting winter, when we are just now sweating it out in early summer. I personally prefer spring and winter. Love the birds at my feeder.

And the ubiquitous Aldi in the background. Wonderful reminder for us up here that the entire world isn't necessarily oriented the way we are! Enjoy your early winter days and dream of spring!

I like this shot, a spot of color through the rain.
