Hay Field

Hay Field
As a city dweller, I have somehow been always attracted to the sight of hay fields. My first opportunity to photograph them came almost 10 years ago during a visit to Western Australia. On my return trip to Western Australia last month, I visited almost the same spot along the Balingup-Nannup Scenic Route. The skies had just cleared up after a morning shower and I had wanted to scout around for a much higher vantage point. However, I had to give up my attempt because of literally tonnes of irritating bush flies that attacked me from top to toe immediately after I got off the car!

Last Task For The Day

Last Task For The Day
First post of the new year… Obviously, I haven’t had time to go out to take some pictures as yet, so one from 2012 will do for now. We made a short getaway to Western Australia just a month ago. The weather was supposed to be hot but an unusual day of heavy rainfall greeted us when we arrived in the Margaret River area. After a whole day of rain, I was glad that the sun made a dramatic appearance during our evening drive. With little time to spare, I headed towards the beach. I was initially dismayed when I saw the vehicle on the jetty. In the end, the occupants and their activity actually proved to be nice foreground subjects to contrast against the dramatic scene behind them.
