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)

Bright Sunset Glow

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Glowing golds of sunset at Arthurs Seat, Mornington Peninsula

PhotoHunt prompt ~ Bright

Glowing heartbeats of a sunset
Can never really be seen
And felt
Clearly
Without the dark leaves
And shadowy
Wires
Of night

Beautiful sunset. Nature's grand show makes the streetlight look downright feeble.
