Australia !

On a friend's property just prior to Christmas, this scene just screamed out "Australia" to me. With the windmill, concrete rainwater tank and watering trough and, of course, all those wonderful gum trees - all that's missing are the sheep and cows - they were in the paddock behind me!

This is my contribution to Skywatch Friday. Have a great weekend.

  1. I love how you have kept the colouration in the sky without the expense of losing colour in the foreground...... and that windmill is just the best, it screams countryside...

  2. I can't quite tell - and I am rubbish at tree identification - but I like the variety of trees lining the hilltop.

  4. As you say Val very rural Australia with those beautiful clear blue skies. A great capture.
