The Sunday Stills for this week from Terri: The Peoples #National Parks

One of my favourite National Parks is Castle Rock at Girraween. I just love the Granite boulders

Just up the road from my place is the Gibraltar Range National Park which has lots of other parks within. One of my favourite places is Raspberry Lookout where you can see for kilometers. My place is way off on the left hand side over a few hills. I don’t think you can see where it is actually but over there somewhere.

The word prompt from Debbie at Travel With Intent: Window

I went looking for some window photo that I haven’t posted before and I did get carried away when I went looking in my Europe folders. I know the idea was window but….I’m sorry Debbie just a few from around the Europe.

The Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #60: Framing the Shot

I think I got carried away with this photo challenge but couldn’t find the photo I really wanted. In a random order.  No words but if you want to know about a particular shot, or shots, drop me a line.

Kate’s Friday Fun: Nonsense

One day
down the road
a number of things
found
which helped
to create nonsense.
Always on
the lookout
for things
which make us laugh.
We add
find
add a bit more
until our
small bit
of street art
is done
left for others
to find.

Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Things Made from Wood

A while ago we went to a town over the mountains, Inverell and went to the Pioneer Village. Many of the buildings have been saved and transported to the village for a living exhibition of the life and times in the 1800’s.     “The Inverell district is in a fertile agricultural region which produces a wide range of crops, including wheat, barley, oats, sorghum, wine grapes and maize. There are also some mining activities with tin, sapphires, zircons and diamonds (mainly industrial) being found.[12] Inverell is known as the ‘Sapphire City’ because of the sapphires that found throughout the local district, contributing to a major part of Australia’s sapphire production.” source Wikipedia

Here is a few of the things I found.

The Miners Store  – Inverell has a mining history since Diamonds were discovered in 1875 and later Sapphires190824_blog_challenge_blackandwhite_things_wood_house_inverell
