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)

What a lovely scene with the seagulls, beautiful reflection photo.

Lynne with an e said...

These gulls, ankle deep in the puddle, seem so content with their little pool of paradise. I love the reflected blue sky and clouds, rimmed by the sand, making the birds earth, sea, and sky bound at the same time.
Thank you for your kind comment on my blog.

Great reflections not just the birds but also the blue sky and the clouds.

Beautiful! I love the way the birds seem to be totally at home and relaxed in the puddle. Very nice!
