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)

Such a gentle sea. Ideal for little paddling feet.

Hi Gemma. That is my kind of beach! And I just want to go for a stroll on it right this minute. Great picture.

I like the way the colours fade into each other. Very nice, especially with the lines in the sand under the water.

Very clear water, I love watching the trace of the sand, easy to find if you lost or fall something.hehe

Such clear water that you can see the sand ripples. Perfect to take the canoe out on.

Beautiful shot, it feels like you can just step into the shot. All I need know is a beach chair, umbrella and a book. Have a wonderful day.
