Martina, the iron-bark tree in the foreground, the mix of trees along the creek in the mid-ground and the blue of the eucalyptus rising from the hills beyond.
I think this all to be not 'lime' enough for Europe.
Julie, thank you very much. Of course I didn't recognise the iron bark tree - definitely some tree you won't find in Germany in the middle of the landscape ;-). While mixed forest and "blueish" mountains - this (i.e. the photo) could very well be one of the low mountain ranges in Central Europe.
In the morning we went out to see the radio telescope 20 or so kms out of town. On another wayfaring trip we visited the radio telescope at Parkes but this one is an array of dishes on a long track that can act like one big dish.
Oh yes, changes the scene quite markedly. Howewver, it is still unmistakably Australian.
ReplyDeleteThe landscape and the colours look a lot like England to me.
ReplyDeleteYour lovely photo invites a leisurely stroll over the paddock, through the trees and out on to the church grounds :D
ReplyDeleteThe distant spire looks great there. Great composition.
ReplyDeleteExactly what I thought: could be in Germany as well. I wonder what Julie sees as unmistakably Australian, ;-). Please tell me, yes?

Great composition. It is great to see some old towns are still in good shape after seeing the ruins in SA.
