Water streams across a rock into a rock pool at Venus Baths, Halls Gap. The weather has been dry, and the flow is quite slow, but the place is still beautiful. K1SD7462

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" is a popular reference to William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet, in which Juliet seems to argue that it does not matter that Romeo is from her family's rival house of Montague, that is, that he is named "Montague". I would differ though! Casting aside historical and literary context, I think the word "ROSE" is highly evocative! Would you use any other name for this most beautiful deep pink beauty? IMGP4300

The storm clouds rolled in, and rain came a moment later. Colours intensified as the sun set and the storm started. Another mood of our lovely Lake Wendouree at Ballarat, Australia (ref K1SC6029)

Bullarto Train Station is near Daylesford, Victoria, Australia, and is beautiful countryside. A vintage train runs from Daylesford to Bullarto, which is a very historic railway station set in the forest. It was an ideal setting for capturing some lovely retro styled photographs of beautiful vintage vehicles. K1SB4793
