‘To Die For’ Malcolm! How wonderful for you to have been there at that time of day. Sends shivers up my spine just thinking of it. Such a wonderful image! I’ve looked at it from every angle. I stand, it looks pale. I sit, it looks quite dark, and takes on an orangy/red look. Gosh! I just love it, and it’s a definate fave for me. :-)

Thank you Marie. I have to say that it was a very unusual location and I had never seen anything like the pinnacles before. There were hundreds and hundreds of them.

An unusual landscape indeed, Malcolm. Perhaps this is where the idea for Geelong’s waterfront sculptures came from …
Beautiful shot & congrats on being featured :-)
Malcolm Katon replied 18 days ago
Thank you Leanne. I’ve never seen the Geelong waterfront sculptures so I’ll have to have look for photos of them.
