Bylong Valley View
We are driving along the Bylong Valley Way a very picturesque drive of farms against a backdrop of mountains. I'm always happy to see the mountains return.
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.
Our mountains are so small compared to the rest of the world but they are still great as a backdrop.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of the CDP August theme day: postcard-worthy. Fantastic sky.
ReplyDeleteI like the winding of the sheep track ...
ReplyDeleteEnjoying your trip along the Bylong Way. There's some beautiful country around that area.
