Davo
Karl Williams
Great colours here, Davo. I have to say that the colours are more associated in my mind with somewhere like Utah than NSW. We learn something new every day!
David Hibberd replied
G’day Karl and thank you. I tend to think most people don’t realy comprehend the vast size of Australia and its varied land scapes. Strangly enough it’s the Aussies that seem to have the least knowledge of the land, I guess most of us don’t travel to much.
Plus the so many films coming out of the U S show this type of landscape. Tanks again mate
Davo
Tony Middleton
Beautiful rich colours David !

photorealm
this is mind blowing!
David Hibberd replied
Not sure if your familiar with Mungo? It is the site where Mungo man and woman were found. These finds have turned the out of Africa theory on its head and slammed it in to the ground. Its facinating to learn more about our land and this place is our land at its best. Thank you for your comment, sorry if the reply was more than you wanted

Hi Vicki. I know what you mean about Mars. I have a few shots of Mungo in IR and they put me in mind of a luna scape. We are so very fortunate to live here in Oz. Thank you.
