God's paintbrush


Now the flower displays are getting showy but there are more tiny flowers to be discovered too.

  1. Aren't our wildflowers beautiful this time of year. Are these photos near Parachilna? I miss the incredible vast starry skies out in the bush. I would live in the Flinders Rangers again anytime, but husband's work is in the city now unfortunately.

  2. Pam, these photos were taken somewhere between Hawker and Maree, I'm not exactly sure where.

    I know all about the demands of city jobs ... I am currently commuting every day from my beautiful Blue Mountains to the city

  6. Martina I don't know!! Most of the flowers were unfamiliar to me. I bought a book to try and identify them but there are so many and so many that are pea flower shaped like these that I can't figure it out.

  7. I wonder if the browny ones are a variety of Boronia known commonly as 'bacon and eggs'?

  8. Julie, there are quite a few different plants that go under the bacon and eggs name, this could be one of them.

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.

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.
