Green and Gold Summer

Australia in Green and Gold

A sick day brings back memories of a recent trip to Australia. The land of green and gold. Thoughts of Summer often cheer me up.

Starting with the little things. One would simply walk past them without a second glance. Missing the beauty of something wild and untamed. How it adapts and changes with its surroundings.

To the bigger things.


Australia 09 | Sky, Sea, Land
Best viewed at 500.

Panoramic views of cliffs, fields and trees in high contrast to the deep blue colour of the sea that can inspire the artist in you. Churning out a multitude of ideas on how to capture everything in all it’s majesty. It’s a wonder how people opt to drive in speeds that don’t allow them to take all these things in.

To travel is to nourish one’s soul, I believe.

  3. That’s a lovely image. It’s nice that you take time to appreciate the small lovely things around you.

  4. Thanks, Rachel! I believe that it’s best to do these things while we still can. It helps us see how precious our time is; how amazing our life is. :)
