Road less travelled
Passing signs urging us to fossick for opal at Lightening Ridge (just 6.5. hours away), sleep for the night at Bathurst and visit Dubbo jail we choose the road less travelled. It passes by the Wallerwang and Point Piper power stations. For some reason I really like them.
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.
You should get treatment for that!
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, there's something about the way the smoke drifts into the sky.
ReplyDeleteI would have chosen the road less travelled too. Off the beaten track is always what I'm looking for when I travel.
ReplyDeleteJM, I think they are stretching it saying it is less travelled ... it's a pretty popular road ... not exactly a quiet outback track.
