This is an icon of Victoria and Australia. On Sunday the left hand "stack" collapsed into the sea. "They said it sort of shimmered or shuddered and then fractured and collapsed straight down on itself". By chance I had arranged for my son to fly me down there yesterday. I'll show you what was left tomorrow. One less Apostle

Yes, you are right -maybe.

"It depends on your definition of a sea stack," Mr Alex Green (The ranger in charge of the shipwreck coast) said. "From the viewing platform, you used to be able to see nine, now eight. From the air you can see more. It used to be 14, now it's 13. Historically, there were as many as 20 to 30 along the coast."

"The Twelve Apostles were originally called the Sow and the Piglets, but the name was changed to the Apostles in the 1960s, then eventually to the Twelve Apostles in reference to the Bible, not the stack numbers."

Glad you like it.

"What other reason could there be to get up in the morning except to set ourselves free." If my comment on your work ever seems to criticise, it does not. It is always so that we may learn together.

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings: And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill. That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes. We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not. Yet so the universe was wrought . Thought is another name for fate. Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
