Undulating



We are travelling through sheep and wheat country, lovely undulating land before we reach the big flat plains.

The fields are a patchwork of winter crops breaking through with a sheen of green, brown soil tilled for planting and straw coloured pasture.

    I love this variety of Australian countryside. Heavily farmed and changed from what nature provided for the early settlers.

    There is something about patchwork scenery which is compelling.

    I see it as the transition lands between the city and the big farm lands, between the hills and the plains, And yes I love the patchwork too.

    Another shot that could have been taken at the Alentejo. :-)

Windy August

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.

Big sky country 3

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.
