Birrawa


This weekend we went wayfaring in a concerted attempt to reach 100 towns before the end of the year.

Birrawa is a small settlement flanking the road between Mudgee and Gulgong. There is a big grain silo there and some very sad old homes and buildings. I wan't sure if this was a community hall or a church.

See more of Birrawa over at 100 towns.

    My 1st thought was also a sad shot.
    Also agree with you that those vintage caravans look great but I wouldn't want to holiday in one.

    Great shot of decay

    The quiet colors and varied textures of this photo are really appealing. At least those are natural materials of wood and metal decomposing, something on the order of logs and rocks breaking down.

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.
