Connecting moments in my peninsula world, my Australia and beyond...Whatever speaks to my thalassophile soul in these tidal days...
Wow...This must be the first silo art I've seen with poetry embedded...How fitting that Gunnedah should be the site for this art, heartland for Mackellar's inspiration and love of the Australian countryside...There's also a life-size bronze statue of Mackellar on a horse here... https://t.co/irxZxDZDgq

Tasmania is so beautiful in any season and in any weather...I always felt inspired when I lived there, amazed at the variety of stunning landscapes...I still miss that world... A beautiful celebration in sound and visuals of my soul place...

It must be years since I last saw a Christmas beetle...Many people claim they're disappearing...According to one article, the many dry years have not been kind to the appearance of Christmas beetles... except Queensland. Perhaps our winter rains may spur on their appearance...

❤️❤️❤️'Shutter Island' (2010)-directed by Martin Scorsese+Leonardo DiCaprio stars...I watched this movie on SBS last night...It is a dark, psychological thriller, on an island, twisting perceptions of realities+pseudo-realities...Max Von Sydow takes a brief but disturbing role... pic.twitter.com/pTkoo0DX8p
