Tamworth Tempest
Whilst staying with Shannon and her family in Tamworth, northern New South Wales, a few weeks ago, the evening sky turned on a performance of its own. Each time we have been there we've witnessed wonderful cloud formations all around.
They are all so beautiful and the grandeur of the long sweep of land meeting the faraway sky---just amazing. I can feel it and smell it and hear the susssssh of the wind as the clouds fly by.
And that last one, with the one bright pink cloud curve just leaping up to bask in that last blast of sunlight---what a captivating picture!! Thank you for such a delightful journey this morning!
Those cloud formations are fascinating and very beautiful. I played Bernie's game and found,among other things, a few wind sprites blowing puffy balls of white around. I see cows at the end of the rainbow! :) I love the soft colours in that glorious sunset. Wonderful photos! So good to see the Aussie landscape in all its glory. Thank you dear Alice.
