Canon 20D – 17-40mm L – 17mm – 1s – f/11 Antelope Canyon is the most-visited and most-photographed slot canyon in the American Southwest. It is located on Navajo land near Page, Arizona. Antelope Canyon formed over the course of millions of years by erosion of the Navajo Sandstone, primarily due to flash flooding and secondarily due to wind erosion. Rainwater (especially during monsoon season) runs into the wash that Antelope Canyon is part of, picking up speed and sand as it rushes through the narrow passageways. Over time the passageways are eroded away, making the corridors wider and smoothing hard edges in such a way as to form characteristic ‘flowing’ shapes in the rock. Upper Antelope Canyon, called Tse bighanilini, “the place where water runs through rocks” by the Navajo, is the most frequently visited by tourists, due to two considerations. First, its entrance and entire length are at ground level, requiring no climbing. Second, beams (shafts of direct sunlight radiating down from openings in the top of the canyon) are much more common in Upper than in Lower. Beams occur most often in the summer months, as they require the sun to be high in the sky. / In the same series: / / /

Best viewed LARGE ============================================================= I learned this song at school as a little girl and every time I see wattle I sing it to myself…...... Golden Wattle, fairy stuff / Little balls of yellow fluff / Hear the bees how loud they hum / To say they’re glad that Spring is come When the stars begin to peep / Then the wattle falls asleep / Like a tired child in bed / It droops its pretty curly head Anon.

“My family is an odd one. My father is older than my grandparents. My brother was older than my mother. I am an only child but I have a brother. It is the stuff of Hollywood and my family story is always very entertaining to others and while it does make for interesting conversation it has its down side. Bruce was thirty when I was born and by then had already launched himself into what ultimately became his obsession so I guess it seemed unlikely from the outset that we would ever be close. This has always been a source of sadness for me. But I have always been immensely proud of what he worked so hard to achieve and remain proud of the legacy he has left to the scientific community and the country as a whole. Now that I am in my thirties and finally getting my own shit together, so to speak, I was looking forward to forming a closer adult relationship with my brother. I was looking forward to finding out what it was really like to be somebody’s sister. However it was not to be. I tried to come to see him before Christmas last year but he put me off citing this problem and that. I laughed it off at the time, amused at how like his father he was. I thought there would still be time but he chose not to tell us he had a serious heart condition and it will be a while before I can forgive him for gypping me out of a big brother. We didn’t get to share much but I do at least have the memories of childhood visits with the dingoes, a common artistic flair for photography and above all, and the thing for which I am most grateful, a shared love and passion for all animals great and small, by which to remember him.” / ____________ I wrote this to be read at my brother’s funeral almost 3 years ago now. The obsession of which I spoke was the dingo and this is a photograph I took when I visited his property outside Castlemaine, Victoria after we were notified of his death by the local police. As I say, it has been almost 3 years since his death and I still have not quite come to terms with all that was lost when he died. I have still not quite forgiven him for doing me out of a brother nor myself for not pursuing a relationship more fiercely. I don’t know if I ever really will and frankly, rather than getting easier with time it only seems to be getting harder.

Daisies or Gerbera Daisies are the 5th most popular flowers in the world just behind roses, carnations, chrysanthemums, and tulips. Their name comes from the English translation, daes eage, or “day’s eye.” / Bright cheerful Daisy blooms make you smile … Life Is Good. A very joyful card for every occasion / /
