Boats limping with tides
Magnetic horizon lights
Journeys in waiting

WHETHER WE LIVE UPSTREAM OR DOWNSTREAM,
WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT.
I measure out my life with haiku. My camera films my soul. ~ Gemma Wiseman
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)

This looks so peaceful and lovely.
I love the moody sky in this photo. Lovely, as always.
How I love that title. So poetic. The scene is pure poetry too.
The water looks so peaceful and serene while the clouds above look rather brooding and foreboding. Very nice Sunday Scenery!
Oh such a peaceful scene. Have a good week.
This is a great sample of Sunday Scenery, Gemma. That view could be from one of many restaurants on the North Carolina coast. It makes me anxious to take a trip to the beach. :0)
