my cushion...

PASSING THOUGHT: It's just not the night... I feel as if am drifting on a long cushion.... There's no pillow...no foot-rest...Just a long cushion...no connections with thoughts...and the feelings seem to be sleeping...only a foggy landscape and a line of trees turn in my mind..

on a soft rise...

on a soft rise
a file of slight trees

As soon as I saw this image, I thought of a songline...
 'There were three trees
Upon a hill
And they spoke to the whispering wind...'

I have just Googled it and Mr Google has never heard of it...

'The first tree said I will be a fine bed
Fit for a king to lie on, he said,
But was it in scorn or was it in anger
He found himself fashioned into a manger.'

Another tree is felled and becomes the boat on Galilee...

I wish I could remember the song...

UPDATE: And now, I have found the strangest thing - It was a Czech song...???? Craig Morrison?
A translation???
But the words on the left of this website look about what I remember...

in foggy worlds...

in foggy worlds
veils and secrets

I love how fog silently cocoons shapes and melts sharp edges into sylph-like cushions of art...

Oodnadatta Track...

The Oodnadatta Track in South Australia is far more than 600km of dirt. Along the way is a welcoming Pink Roadhouse.

History of the Pink Roadhouse HERE - The pink part of the name is associated with a 1969 Dodge Phoenix.

albatross...

You know the waves must be getting big when you have to look upwards to photograph an albatross sitting on the water! (Shy Albatross in heavy seas off Eden in 2016). #seabirds #WildOz #SeabirdSaturday pic.twitter.com/t003zgPGlv

I have just learnt that an albatross can live up to 60 years...Incredible, when you think that they spend most of life flying...

oops....

A feature? A talking point? 

ringtail possum circus...

The ringtail circus definitely features rather impressive acrobats...Love it... https://t.co/5Xdca7Sd64

These guys are so amazingly agile...

rain in the desert...

This is 1 hour worth of bliss. And extra special...if you want to learn what birds are joining the music of rain, there is a neat little list of times identifying the birds heard at that point...Very clever... https://t.co/AY2upg1Gd7

Enjoyed every precious minute of this... I could feel the desert spaces blessed with rain...Wonderful...

despotic rainstorm...

Love the free-wheeling spins of waves in stormy weather...
