Apologies for the month-long absence, I’ve been particularly busy with writing and getting away on a brief visit. Here are a couple of Australian images in quick succession to compensate. This one was taken up by Palmer , way north of Adelaide on November 23rd, 2020, at the first pull-in. The land was so dry, the sheep seemed to be scratching an existence from almost nothing. The air was hot and oppressive, and the distance was blue with haze. This angle is looking northward, if memory serves, toward agricultural buildings. There were grain silos not far away. I was struck by how very stark South Australia is by that time of year. This year, we’re into uncomfortably hot days a month earlier.
