An amazing view and capture, it shows the beautiful colour of the land but also shows the devasting effect of drought in some parts of our rural areas. this a very powerful image Robert well done.

I heard about the drought in parts of Australia. It is tragic. It’s hard to believe that grass once grew here. I’m sure a lot of people’s dreams were shattered. A pretty picture but sad.
