the conductor.....

David Murphy

the conductor.....

Out Myalla way, NW Tasmania, after a small shower, a brilliant rainbow popped out as we were heading home…..so, I grabbed a shot of this tree, looking like a conducter, the threeman orchestra watching his upstretched hands attentively, as the rainbow shone down his music…...
Other than that story, its a tree in a rainbow!!
