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)

A Little Red in the Rain


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Just recently, I accompanied some Year 11 and 12 students to a Careers Expo at Caulfield Racecourse, Melbourne.
It was rainy.
As we were leaving, I took this photo through the huge windscreen of the bus.
