Is that a Coolibah tree beside the abandoned house? Every Australian knows about Coolibah trees because the bush ballad Waltzing Matilda is nigh on our unoffical national anthem but most of us live nowhere near the inland where they grow. Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong, Under the shade of a Coolibah tree, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me. Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
Very "cool" (it's raining here right now - after some days of extreme cold and snow) - I like the framing very much.
ReplyDeleteMe so too. The silve lady with the meeting of the sheets of the bonnet behind her.
ReplyDeleteGood job.
She's a beauty. Shame you had to see them in the rain, I would probably just kept on feeding.
ReplyDeleteThe rain adds much to this great car detail.
ReplyDeleteCalypso and R2-D2 Mangoes are cheaper due to their smaller size. However, I am not so keen on their taste, as I am on the taste of the Kensington Pride.
ReplyDeleteAt my local supermarket, which is Thomas Dux, the upmarket Woolies, they are selling a tray of 14 Calypso mangoes for $13.99.
