What a spectacular setting for a caravan park, tucked a few kilometres away from touristy Daylesford – a late afternoon walk revealed beautiful foliage (including holly!), two rustic bridges, a cathedral-like avenue of tall deciduous trees, and friendly wild ducks on Lake Jubilee.
This is how Christmas looked where I was, complete with Henny Penny roaming the lawn. How did your Christmas look?
Like most Aussies, a certain amount of driving was involved on Christmas Day, which was the hottest since 1998. This dilapidated old Mazda sedan was spotted on a farm in the Wimmera, south of Horsham, and worth turning back for a quick snap before continuing to our destination.
Shot with Fujifilm X10, no editing done beyond adding a border in Snapseed app. I enjoyed getting this little camera out for Christmas Day snapshots, having used the Panasonic GX7 (itself a fairly small MILC camera) exclusively for a few weeks.
Wishing all my followers a very happy Christmas and a wonderful year ahead. Thanks for your follows, likes, and comments throughout the year, it helps keep me focussed and keen to continue sharing my work here.
With love in my heart and light in my lens,
Melanie Y’lang
I overheard tiny voices in the undergrowth at the Coleraine arboretum, complaining about some missing hats and worrying that they’d cop a hiding from Santa for losing them again. So I took a photo to put up a LOST notice for the worried elves.
Just kidding – Santa’s not real.
Bahahahumbug!
