The many grasses that bind sand dunes together take on a very warm hue, generally, in late afternoon sunlight.  Conversely, in winter, they seem almost morose pinned against a grey sky.

Little fingers, tiny toes
Baby scent, button nose

Little baby, growing tall
I will catch you when you fall
You’ll grow up, now wait and see
One day you’ll be as big as me

You are my life
You are my soul
I’ll protect you
It is my role

Little fingers, tiny toes
Baby scent, button nose

Happy Birthday little man, I look forward to seeing who you become, from your first tiny steps through the path of life to the mountains you ascend.

After another weekend sojourn resulting in a few days of missing photos, I’ve returned somewhat refreshed.  A more consistent flow of images to come!

Mist whipped up by late after breezes assaults the cliffs to the north of Salmon Beach, in the D’entrecasteaux National Park.

One of the most striking features of Salmon Beach were the large cliffs right up the water’s edge.  The feeling of being somewhat hemmed in was actually quite comforting, as though one was sheltered from the world; just you and a beach.

Salmon Beach was one of our first stops ‘down south’ after earlier arriving in Bridgetown.  It’s part of the D’entrecasteaux National Park which stretches along the song coast around Windy Harbour.  It would have to be one of the most picturesque beaches I’ve seen in my life.  More photos of it over the next few days.

I’ve been on a very relaxing sojourn down south the last three days hence the lack of photos.  The good news though is that three days exploring the wonders of Pemberton, Manjimup and Bridgetown means I’m armed with quite a few images which I’ll start posting from tomorrow.

Crisp in name and nature.  Gorgeous crepuscular rays soar majestically above the rain clouds surrounding the sunset at North Beach.

Layers of lit clouds linger over the setting sun.  North Beach.

The fiery sunset and a small cloud of rain play off each other below clear skies west of North Beach, Perth.
