I think country is a bit of acquired taste, drunk with mother's milk. While my parents were not fans of country music it had a way of just being there on the radio, at local concerts etc. I too am not keen on the American flavour these days.
I have found the sing-a-longs at campsites so be somewhat varied in quality.
In the morning we went out to see the radio telescope 20 or so kms out of town. On another wayfaring trip we visited the radio telescope at Parkes but this one is an array of dishes on a long track that can act like one big dish.
Wonderful blog with processed extraordinary that give great beauty.

Thank you Andres.
DeleteAnother fantastic shot - love this one.
ReplyDeleteLights, fire, hats, guitars, awnings.
The awnings and timber building ... a dead giveaway that it is in Queensland. It was the June in Injune event.
DeleteGreat shot of impromptu concert. A warm glow and feeling is shining through.
ReplyDeleteNot exactly impromptu. The country people put on these events as part of an annual celebration. Yes it was a very warm event on a very cold night.
DeleteI experiened a country sing-a-long once when I toured the Kimberleys. It was cringe-worthy. It so aped everything Nashville. I simply had to leave.

I can almost feel the heat from the fire. The silhouette in the foreground works really well here.
ReplyDeleteI was shooting hand held and you have no idea how many images I took trying to get a decent shot of that silhouette.
