4. Autumn


I adore Autumn and have lovely shots, including some really quite special ones from my own garden. But for a Wayfarer venturing west of the mountains perhaps the most noticeable are the many polars lining properties and entrances to country towns. They turn so beautifully golden as well as the Autumn light which also seems to take on a golden hue.

These poplars are in the town park at Molong, taken in the evening.

  1. I am amazed that Poplars do not come down more frequently in heavy wind and rain. This is a delightfully hued shot, Joan, Shows immense strength, as well as delicate fragility. More power to your eye ...

  2. They are used a lot of wind breaks. Perhaps it is because they a thin they don't fall over. I understand they are deep rooted too ... that would keep them in the ground.

    1. I like to too ... even though I have tried with other Poplar stands I just haven't been able to capture the season and mood as well as I did in this one.

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.

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.
