Winter world
It's winter world around Canberra. Escaping daytime maximums of 8C at home we're looking forward to warmer days, though we do anticipate chilly nights in the inland.
The grass is wintery brown but there is lots of it after all the rain of recent months.
Wonderfully bleak image. And yes, I can see at the same time that it is bountiful. I am intruiged by your working schedule. Bit like being a 'writer' really. How exciting for the two of you.
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.
Nice shot but looks cold. I haven't thawed out from the bridge climb yet.
ReplyDeleteI love nothing better than a sunny, crisp winter's day.
ReplyDeleteTastes like an apple.
What a lovely connection Lettie.

ReplyDeleteWell I am a writer of sorts ... of marketing brochures! The new schedule was a deliberate change to allow us to try a more free wheeling lifestyle.
DeleteWonderful winter day!
