I measure out my life with haiku. My camera films my soul. ~ Gemma Wiseman
AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Oh, and a fun, yellow parade it is! Delightful, colorful capture for the day, Gemma, and the perfect words as always! Have a great week!

gorgeous.
I like the symmetry of the shapes but find the paint jobs odd. Did they share the same paint cans? Oh well, each does have its individuality.
I like it! Yellow is such a cheerful color!
Blessings!

That is pretty and colorful. Looks like a small barn.

Ah - but are they blue and yellow? OR yellow and blue??!!
I also tried to leave a comment on your fabulous post about the pier-shaped grave, but for some reason I couldn't. I've seen weird coffins before - but never a grave!! What a wonderful informal memorial - I'm sure it will trigger many copycats ...
Now I want to go on holidays !
Well, these are very inviting!
That's cool! Nice shot!
Visiting for MYM- hope you can stop by:)
