I was just looking on Poof this week at a couple of photos of Mt Kaputar. It's such a lovely sight when travelling along that road. http://poofanditsgone.blogspot.com.au/2010/07/winter-tuesday-12.html
I like ce it. and I loves fields of wheat. But one of the crops I really enjoy is peanuts which are planted in red soil which contrasts beautifully with the green and is usually planted in contours rather than dead flat country. It's been a long time since I was last in Qld during peanut season so have no photos of it.
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.

Yes it is. It's been a long time since I have travelled the Newell so it was quite forgotten to me.
DeleteSawn Rocks is such a cool rock spot, and Mt Kaputar NP stunning! I wish I was there with you :D
ReplyDeleteYes really cool. As today's post shows.
DeleteCanola fields are (IMO) essentially boring. Nothing can compare with a field of ready to strip wheat.

DeleteIt looks like a really beautiful place, especially with the yellow canola.
ReplyDeleteI really like the yellow blue combo. It works in the same way with gold n dry summer grass against blue mountains.
DeleteI love it too.
