Is that a Coolibah tree beside the abandoned house? Every Australian knows about Coolibah trees because the bush ballad Waltzing Matilda is nigh on our unoffical national anthem but most of us live nowhere near the inland where they grow. Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong, Under the shade of a Coolibah tree, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me. Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
It is amazing to me that you manage 2 blogs of exceptional photographs. Maybe it is like eating peanuts; you can't have just one.
ReplyDeleteIt looks incredibly relaxing :) I really like the reflection in this one.
ReplyDeleteBill, you are right I can't have just one ... I actually have three blogs. I'm glad you like the photos. I love getting out and about to take them.
ReplyDeleteThis is a almost perfect reflection. No disturbance. Mirror-like.
ReplyDeleteI envy the solar panel attached to the camper in the center.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured a sense of calm so well.
Really cool reflection!
ReplyDeleteKiama, hah, I had it in mind to go there on Monday but instead went baby-shopping.
ReplyDeleteKiama is my next $2.50 journey, though.
