Is that a Coolibah tree beside the abandoned house? Every Australian knows about Coolibah trees because the bush ballad Waltzing Matilda is nigh on our unoffical national anthem but most of us live nowhere near the inland where they grow. Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong, Under the shade of a Coolibah tree, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me. Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
Now, that's misty! Love the shot.
ReplyDeleteIt was one of those VERY foggy days. In fact I am not altogether sure this was morning or whether it was later in the day.
DeleteYes, with just a hint of background. Good to get the imagination expanded. There is another terrific misty shot here https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=4838304251210&set=a.1151662087460.18268.1704890317&type=1&theater
ReplyDeleteYes that is a lovely shot. I see the similarity, most of the rest of the world completely blanketed.
