This image was 12 months in the making. The Avenue of Honour is 3km long and is the main entrance to the township of Bacchus Marsh, Victoria, Australia. It has taken on almost iconic status in the town, having been planted in 1918 at the sound of a bugle, as tribute to local people who enlisted in the First World War. Thought to be Canadian , English or Dutch elms, the Avenue now has about 300 mature trees and is classified by the National Trust.

Διόνυσος: I begin to sing of ivy-crowned Dionysus, the loud-crying god, splendid son of Zeus and glorious Semele. The rich-haired Nymphs received him in their bosoms from the lord his father and fostered and nurtured him carefully in the dells of Nysa, where by the will of his father he grew up in a sweet-smelling cave, being reckoned among the immortals. But when the goddesses had brought him up, a god oft hymned, then began he to wander continually through the woody coombes, thickly wreathed with ivy and laurel. And the Nymphs followed in his train with him for their leader; and the boundless forest was filled with their outcry. And so hail to you, Dionysus, god of abundant clusters! Grant that we may come again rejoicing to this season, and from that season onwards for many a year. / —Homeric Hymn to Dionysos.26.1–10 More Olympians / / / /

The new wheelwright display at the Blacksmith Cottage and Forge in Bacchus Marsh was officially opened on Sunday 20 May 07, providing information on the old craft and complimenting nicely the existings displays in the cottage. Open most weekends, the cottage, Forge Book Barn and wheelwright shed are an interesting peek at life 150 years ago.

You’re riding along the muddy road to Ballarat and your horse has thrown a shoe. The blacksmith on the corner is open for business, you can see smoke coming from the chimney of his forge next door to the cottage. It all looks very inviting. / The Blacksmith Cottage and Forge are features of the main street of Bacchus Marsh. It’s open most weekends – with the new wheelwright shed at the rear officially opened today (20/05/07). A rather nice piece of local history lovingly maintained by local volunteers.

Taken in the Louvre Museum, Paris, France Feb 25/09 / In Greek mythology the satyrs are deities of the woods and mountains. They are half human and half beast; they usually have a goat’s tail, flanks and hooves. While the upper part of the body is that of a human, they also have the horns of a goat. They are the companions of Dionysus, (Bacchus) the god of wine, and they spent their time drinking, dancing, and chasing nymphs. The Italian version of the satyr is the faun, while the Slavic version is the Ljeschi.

Taken at about 9.30am, Tuesday 2 June, this view is looking west towards Links Estate from Gisborne Rd, Darley. Low clouds, low light, blue hills, crops and autumn leaves were all too much to resist. / Even though she said not to, I’d like to thank JenniferB for her help with a little post process tweaking to sharpen the colour. Thanks JB!

This is part of The Avenue of Honour in Bacchus Marsh, in remembrance of citizens who fought in the 2 world wars and lost their lives doing so. The trees are elms, and some are suffering the effects of drought here in south-eastern Australia.
