Weekend Reflections - Windows and Water


These are from our trip last autumn. People and sails from
the out-door restaurant brought inside the empty indoor space
by the obliging window in between


and peaceful reflections in a placid river . . .



Both enlarge with a click.

Hope all your weekends are going well . . .

Weekend Reflections & Shadow Shot Sunday


No, not a rock in a desert rain storm . . .


this is our 60,000 gallon water tank that split it's stays when
we filled it to more than a third it's capacity.

It was built in 1935 and obviously had seen a bit of service in
it's time and decided it had had enough, so it shot out one side
and a roaring torrent washed out part of my newly planted
garden.


We were picking up large pieces of concrete and brick for weeks,
thank God no one was in it's way when it happened.



If it ever got cold enough here, we could have our own skating rink,
as it is, the distressed wall makes a great background for a fashion shoot.

They all enlarge for greater detail.

Have some fun at the Weekend, post your best on Shadow Shot Sunday and Weekend Reflection!

Watery Wednesday ~ Creek Crossing


In the North Flinders Ranges the country and driving gets a
bit rugged. What seems like a puddle from a distance,


Is a little different once you are in it.


A view to the left


and heading out again. As you can see by the steep bank, one
seldom can gauge how deep it is in the middle or whether the
flash flood has dug some axle breaking holes in the ford.



This time we were lucky.

All photos enlarge for better viewing.

Thanks to 2sweetnsaxy for getting our feet wet on Wednesdays.
