    Look at that fabulous bedhead gate.
    I'd kill for one of those.

    Letty, I didn't pick it as a bedhead but now I see that's exactly what it is.

    This is the local tourist office?

    That is just what I was going to ask, bedhead ... why does the variant bedstead come to mind?

    And that looks like wattle and daub ...

Windy August

Tumbleweed It was August (known to be a windy month of the year) and it was blowing a gale.  Tumbleweeds hurtled across our path, pressed forward by the busy wind. While I was photographing the tumbleweed, I braved the icy blast to find a few more tiny flowers and fruits by the roadside.

Big sky country 3

The Pinnacles, Broken Hill Clear blue sky is very dull!  But there is something of interest in the image.  These odd shaped mountains appear on the skyline just outside the city. I had planned otherwise for my closing sky today.  On a hill outside town there are wonderful sandstone sculptures which I saw the last time I was here. I planned to photograph them against the setting sun but we left our run too late, so you don’t get to see them until our return journey.
