Old trestle bridge - Bass Coast,Vic. ( Water ,YES - Desal, NO )

The old railway trestle bridge on the beach at Kilcunda – was the site today of a protest in rejection to the Victorian state Labor government’s proposal to build a desalination plant on this coast to supply Melbourne with water.. The Honoury Senator Bob Brown spoke before a crowd of hundreds…
Did you know that each home in Melbourne has 8times the amount of water they use fall on their roof as rain – free from the heavens…and where does it go…

    Beautiful warmth and radiance…so tranquil. Perhaps you should email this to the powers that be and ask them if they could really ruin this site…the next Peter Dombrovski!

    thanks for your comments and support everyone !
    Louise – thanks for such inspirational words !! Being a long time admirer of the great photographer’s work (P.Dombrivski ) I think as close as I get to PD is the fact I have a camera, love nature and am passionate about this gift that we have the responsibility to hand down to our children in at least equal condition as what we have had the priveledge of seeing,hearing,smelling and experiencing. :)
