Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
The only other time I have sever heard the word "billabong" was in the old song "Waltzing Matilda." Boy does that ever bring back childhood memories! Great looking colors, lighting and reflections in this shot, Frank. Well done.

This is beautiful ! It reminds me of some of the early paintings of Australia.
I am guessing that is an actual billabong.
Not a jolly swagman in sight :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
So your travels are not unlike the "Jolly Swagman," Frank.
You made us all think of "Waltzing Matilda."
Good one.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Wonderful reflections in this billabong Frank - now that song is echoing in my head!
