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)

Hi Gemma! Have just taken a quick look at your recent posts and so many intriguing pics! I really need to visit Australia.
What a delightful, fun post for the J Day, Gemma! And such a creative Jumble it is! Love your capture and your words as always. Hope your week is going well!

A Jolly Lake Monster in the making. I love that and your clever post today.
Very interesting J and so pretty too.
Please come and meet the J's in my Family, hope to see you around, thanks!
I think I can see a monster in there. Cool!
Fantasic stick sculpture!
Hope he is not too scary when fully formed. Will those two heads be as one. Nice capture.
Very interesting! If that lake monster is under construction, I'd be interested to see the final work!
actually, I LIKE it! kinda cool.
ROG, ABC Wednesday team
surely a jumble but a wonderful one - I love it
So much of thought and planning has to go into this creative design!! I'm sure it will evolve beautifully and turn into a marvel!!
Have a great day Gemma!!
Cheers!!
lol!
It takes a good eye and skilled hand to do this art. Just very nice to see like this in parks and other public places. Thanks for sharing!

How cool. I like that jumble of sticks.
Maybe it's all a Joke? LOL At first I thought "dog", then I thought "boar"... hmmm...
It may look like a jumble of sticks up close, but I think it's pretty fascinating overall!
Very enjoyable post...
