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)

The softer season
Cool and warm winds dance as one
Passing glow of leaves

Beautiful skies. I know you are very happy to see them after a long, hot summer. I can easily do without our summers but anticipate the remaining three seasons.

Yikes! Is it autumn already? Well, I guess it has to be if we in Canada are looking forward to spring. Where does the time go?

Beautiful skies and the trees are different from the ones I use to see where I live!

Gorgeous captures as always, Gemma! And as autumn moves your way, we are watching for spring! I love the trees silhouetted against the skies! Wonderful! Have a great weekend!

I was truly wondering "Autumn..this time of the year " ??? and then realised that you have your seasons later than the Northern Hemisphere !
Here's to you enjoying cooler weather :)

Great pics
Thanks for stopping by Gemma :)

P.S. I see you are into shadows and reflections too ! Its one of my obsessions too .. plan to do a whole series on it as i seem to have accumulated a whole lot of pics with those themes !
