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)

Photo Games


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ I was very cold this day, so cheated by taking a photo of Safety Beach, Mornington Peninsula from the slightly warmer confines of my car. The resulting shot, with my driver's side door slightly ajar, seemed to create an odd teardrop-like shape round the landscape.

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Not content with one shot, I decided to try for a 3 way diorama. This is the resulting odd shot thanks to my car door and windscreen. I had so much fun playing with possibilities, I almost forgot to shiver!

Cool shots, and I forgot how much I liked Wordle.

I love the freedom that digital gives us to do this. The cost of film made us lose a lot of intersting shot and angles.

That did make for some interesting shots. I'm wondering how you didn't get out of the car. I don't care how cold it is, I need to get out and feel that air hit my cheeks and inhale that salt air.
