It is all looking remarkably green. "Cobblers' Pegs" - have not heard that expression for ages. Instantly, brought forth a deluge of images in my head ...
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.
The grasses are pretty and the camp ground looks nice.
ReplyDeleteYes it is a lovely camp ground. There were cobblers peg in that grass. Had to pick them all out of my coat when I got back.
DeleteLove the little turnstile You don't see them like this much anymore.
ReplyDeleteI too liked it … hence it was my feature shot. I found a couple of others like it in the perimeter fence.
DeleteInteresting to see that it's a mixture of east coast and arid trees (is that a desert oak?) out there in Gilgandra.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea. Unlike flowers the different types of trees defeat me.

ReplyDeleteYes it was very green out there … almost spring green. We haven't had rain here for ages but winter is usually dry here.
