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.
Hi Joan, those Queenslanders are such beautiful houses aren't they. Quite their own style :D)
ReplyDeleteI love this style too. Funnily enough, the north island of NZ also has a timber house tradition too.

ReplyDeleteOur house in the mountains is the nearest thing I could get down south ... a timber home with verandahs but not on a stilts (but raised at the back due to the slope of the land). Blessedly is is however insulated against the cold and has fireplaces and central heating, something usually missing from Queensland homes.
ReplyDeleteI love the little towns where the Queenslanders are still being lived in like in past years. The ones that have been renovated in the cities cost a fortune these days. They were built for coolness in the summer but they could be cold in the winter.
ReplyDelete'down south' ... 'down south' ... !!!
ReplyDeleteIt does not take much to slip back into the habits of youth.
