As this was a late winter drive spring was just beginning to unfold. The streets of Mudgee were lined with trees in blossom.
The tiny camera's tiny battery ran out so I went back to my reading. The note with the sculpture says "This bronze and copper sculpture contrasts a series of small human forms with the architectural weight of on oversize staircase. The artwork has a philosophical aspect by reflecting on the effect of reading on the spirit - 'the more I read the smaller I feel'." Crikey, I dunno about you but if reading made me feel like that I'd stop.
Mudgee is such a lovely town. Love the wine and historic buildings. Enjoy your break.
ReplyDeleteThe blossom has been wonderful everywhere I've been this year - with any luck that means a glut of fruit!!!
ReplyDeleteGood to see the town in spring. When I was there the trees were shedding leaves.
ReplyDeleteMuch of NE Victoria was lined with blossom like this. Very attractive. We DO have seasons in Australia!
ReplyDeleteThe further south you go the seasons become more obvious. But having just finished a bush walk today I have to say spring is also very obvious in the native forest as well.
ReplyDeleteRed it would be good to have lots of fruit. I hear bananas are getting cheaper again and there are heaps of mangos coming down from the NT soon.
