Sunday
We caught the train down to Sydney to attend the Cathedral yesterday. Waiting for the congregation to gather and the service to start. Won't be too long, the bells have started ringing.
Actually all of those pews were full before the start of the service. The photo was taken 20-30 mins before the start. The bells start ringing a half hour before.
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.
Gothic arches galore in there!
ReplyDeleteThey do draw the eye upwards.
DeleteLovely architecture and stained windows.
ReplyDeleteI like the effect of stained glass but never contemplate the actual image.
DeleteThis cathedral looks, sadly, too big for its congregation.
