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.
Beautiful country you'll be travelling through. Looking forward to your posts :D)
ReplyDeleteA summer drive is always lovely though they get pretty hot days in this country.
DeleteSomething very comforting about hay bales in paddocks.
ReplyDeleteMakes me feel like Monet for a fleeting moment.
DeleteI want to do that trip again. Last time I was in a bus.Nice country scene.
ReplyDeleteLast time we went down this way we were on train. Independent road travel is a nice way to go. But the other ways are good too.
