67. Big Red

WhitfordWaterblog Whitford, May 2009.  As I drove through the countryside, I came across this stunning sight – red water – or seemingly.  I just had to get out of the car to take a shot – even though to the right of this pic where the road is, there was major road reconstruction going on, with earthmoving machines and people holding Stop and Go signs.  They probably thought I was crazy to pull into the ditch to take a photo.  Who cares.  I couldn’t get close enough to see why the water was red, but I think perhaps some kind of river weed had taken a hold of this section of water.  Quite amazing anyway, and complemented by the beautiful autumn colouring developing on some of the surrounding trees.

TapuSunsetMay09blog It had been such a miserable day; a chill breeze and miserable rain all day long.  But then, at about 5.30.pm just as Barbara was drawing the curtains for the evening, the sun appeared, only to disappear a few minutes later.  A mad rush to get down to the beach with the camera and capture a stunning end to an ordinary day.

63. And So To The Sea

Tunnelblog Where have you been
What did you see
What stories do you hold
As you wend your way
From the hills above
Through valleys
And groves
On your slow and
Meaningful course
To Meet The Sea
