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.
I'm reading cook's biography at the moment. He certain had some epic journeys.
ReplyDeleteUmm ... I have not seen this in person yet ... shall have to wander from bridge to bridge on my next visit ...
ReplyDeleteIt is just to the left of Commonwealth Avenue bridge coming from Civic direction ... overlooking the Captain Cook Fountain.
ReplyDeleteif you are going to stay as Olim's it is going to be quite a walk to Commonwealth Park!
Winam, I am not reading anything but over the Christmas holidays perhaps I can rectify that.
ReplyDeleteLast time I walked from the Hotel Kurrajong, via Defence to the AWM and back again ...
