Sun touching down on the Brindabella Ranges. Couldn't really tame the fireball, but I like the scene anyway.

Nice. I can imagine the birdsong kicking in.

I need to get out with a camera earlier in the day more often!

For ritual sacrifice to Tlaloc?

Seriously, though, great find and composition.

One of your best, I think. Fascinating composition. A whole lot of "leading lines" that are diagonal to some degree, but which the viewer sees as parallel to each other. The regularity of those lines is counter-punched by the irregularity of the tree shadows, the dog, etc. I spent a lot of time looking at that picture.

Thank you. It's a place I go frequently to stroll around and let the dog wander. I think I subconsciously seek leading lines wherever I go.

Quite possibly, but sometime after Kokopelli delivered the unborn to these women.
