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)

Dear lover of mine
Close soul friend through the seasons
Sounds, sights of the sea

this shot makes me think of a crime of passion.. a love lost.. a body found.. a life spent running away from something that could never be taken back.....

wow!!

Your music choice is quite fitting with your water scenes. Very nice.

After reading your poem and listening to the music, I felt like a voyeur looking at your photo!

Beautiful choice Gemma. I was immediately struck my how easily this could have been mistaken for a place I've visited on the coast of Oregon.

I have to agree with Jodi on this one. there is a very mysterious feel to this one Gemma.

I apologize for being late but I had no PC until mid day yesterday. I am dashing all over the place to try to catch up.

And also once again my hubby is headed up your way. If this keeps up we could very well be your neighbor someday.

Great shot Gemma.
