Despite terrible drought at my home town, the sighting of green meadow is really exciting

Wonderful farmscape and the small crossing is a nice lead in. Funny, when I tell my co-workers how much I love rolling clouds or the light before and after a storm, they say there goes the guy who brings clouds with him where ever he goes.

Wow, Green is the word here! Looks like something I'd see in a nice Australia landscapes calendar. Good job!

Beautiful colour James. Although the meadow is green the trees on the hills look a bit parched. The sky looks terrific, too!
A classic pastoral scene.

Thanks for sharing.

Haha

This is off Princess highway on the way to Forster. A valley off the hidden track.

It is this lush green. I did a little touch up on the trees in the photos since they are just grey without any colour.

There are still green bits in Victoria where the water restriction is only stage 2

I bring catastrophy in fact. Every job I started will end up in huge workload for everyone. Even every restaurant I visited frequently will eventually close down. Not a good thing in fact.

However, I love cloudy sky. Every time I heard people telling me that a fine sky will produce good shots for me. I go "meh, I prefer dramatic sky with clouds".

The magic of limited is this kind of look. The cloud is an example. You will get addicted to limited series soon.

Thanks, this is the type of sky everyone in melbourne whined about.

Calendars like to gather big landmarks like Urulu rocks or Sydney harbour bridge. You are too kind to compare this to a calendar quality

Thanks there.

These trees are in fact much more hydrated than the ones I usually see. Even native plants are dying in this land. The revelation chapter is taking its place here...

The sky is what I get with limited most of the time. A luxury item.

Given that you are a photo editing guru, you would know the green is saturated because I made it that way

Thanks for the comment

I have printed it off and now it is lying around on my carpet. It is good to see something green in real life. When I am at home, I could see these images to re live the time spending in these areas.
