Default Help, I think I have too many photos

I don't know which ones to show you.
another sunset, there will be many more by the time I'm finished

Cloncurry 2-4

This one is a bit different. This is a termite mound, they scatter the landscape everywhere out here. They range in size from a few centimeters tall to over 2 meters (6-7 foot). They build them above the ground for heating and cooling purposes, they eat dried out dead grass.

Cloncurry 2-3

the windmill again

Cloncurry 2-2

and lets not forget the cattle, the reason for being.

Cloncurry 2-1

All good shots. But I really love the composition and tones of the second one. Good show!

Start at the beginning and work your way through them Michele, your work is a joy to look at and I think many share my views

Wow Michelle what a great variety. The first one is just beautiful and the colour of the sky is stunning. Great contrast with the lovely blue sky in the second one and a subject a lot of people would maybe take for granted, I love the windmill shot too and once again lovely contrast with the sky. The last one really shows the movement of the cattle with the dust, and I love the colour too.
You can post all of them Michelle, It's a pleasure to view your work and I getting to know your country a little better because of your great variety of shots.

Dave.

Thankyou very much Steve, you might be very tired of windmills and sunsets by the time I finish, the trees were amazing the grow very differently to the way they grow around here.

Thanks Bill, It is wonderful to see the rest o;f the world through others photos, isn't it? It also makes me think about the photos I am going to take and consider what is unique to Australia and how I can show it off.

Michele, I don't know where to start. I've enjoyed all four of these. I especially like the second because of the unusual subject matter the golden tones and the composition. But the fourth is my favorite. I love the fog in the background and the flock of birds on the left. Monster shot!

I think I know the cure Michele, pick 4 at random every 24 hours and post .. Based on history and this set we'll never be disappointed! .. Every one of these are fantastic, but the opening sunset has such a unique glow and colour (never mind perfect composition) makes it my fav of this post .. thanks for sharing your journey ..
