Church yard
We're coming up to the church, it's a modern replacement for an old building so here is it's fence instead. Over the road there is a big flock of ducks settled in the white paddock.
Super shot. The white paddock, the sun filtering through and the old fence dragging your eye into the picture. A great rural scene. I hope you make a calendar of these shots.
Yeah, I love fences like this. You know each of those posts has a name. See that little busted one ... what is it called ... I used to know. My father spent manymany hours building fences on our farm. I have googled to try to find the names of various posts, but to no avail. I shall have to ask my brother when he returns from the UK in a coupla weeks.
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.

ReplyDeleteI don't know anything about fences other than that I like the look of them.
