Clunes

This week proved to be a good one, thanks to my beloved who allowed me to use his birthday money to purchase a DSLR external flash for my camera, so I did the next kindest thing and ordered him a GoPro which was delivered a couple of days ago, much to his excitement. He was as  happy as a kid with a new toy when it arrived. Sadly it didn't come before the weekend when we went out, so hopefully he will be able to use it this coming weekend.

My lastest photography expedition was at a place called Clunes and surrounding areas, my beloved and I do some silly things, we drive down roads where we have no clue where it will end, sometimes made sometimes not. I think at times we see things that we would not usually see if we stuck to the highway

Lush countryside scattered with cows and sheep, tall gum trees slowly swaying in the breeze, a lone bird flies past squawking as it goes of into the distance. the sun shining through the clouds as you drive along that secluded road what a life.

The countryside is beginning to become green and lush again, but in a matter of months it will be dry again, as the warmer weather approaches us and the rain stays away. The nice green paddocks and hills will be a mass of yellow due to lack of rain.

 

The countryside is full of many old homes some lived in other left as the people move on to new and exciting things, they are left to rot over time. I often wonder what lies behind those walls, is there some old treasure they have left behind, what stories are locked between the walls which are only held up now by the old frail rusty nails. One will never know.

Cows are unusual creatures the only expression you can see on them is in their eyes, I had a friend laugh at me when I called them cute little baby cows, but yes they were so cute, as I stepped out of the car, they all made a mad dash to the fence like a group of young girls wanting to see their favorite pop star. They were pushing and shoving just to get a glimpse of me and I was lucky to be able to get a few great shots.

 

Moooooooooooo

 

 

I was also lucky enough to have a, hmm now what do you call them not a hurd of ponies, nope I don't think that's what you call them, if you know can you please tell me, these little ponies galloped over to me, I was unable to get close to them as there was an electric fence in the way. I was a bit disappointed by that as  you could see all they wanted was for you to pat them on the head. but ever so sweet

I have loads of photos which I wish I could share with you, but if I did that my blog would go on for days.

Life is at it's best, when I have my camera with me and my beloved by my side, the beautiful sun shinning down from above, makes for a good day and also makes you feel good.
