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)

That's a fun shot. I love all the reins and leads that add so much complexity to the scene.

Horses are such beautiful, noble looking animals--even with the bridle, reins, etc. in the way. Nice shot--perfect in B&W. Mickie
