Once again, we took off for a day’s
escape into the countryside. It is becoming our favourite day of the week to
plot a route which will not only take us to great photographic spots but also
to satisfy our sense of adventure as we like to travel on roads we have not
explored yet. This can lead to little 4X4 adventures through farmland and muddy
streams flavoured with strong farm aromas.
Hoping for clouds, we had closely
watched the weather and decided to leave early on Thursday to maximise the morning
light. The wheat fields were glowing in many shades of new greens and after the
2 weeks of warm weather we have had, the canola fields were turning yellow and
punctuated the landscape with early fields of gold. The clouds played hide and seek
with the sun creating shadows which subtly accentuated the topography of some areas
while the still visible lines of ploughing in the canola fields emphasised the
contour of the terrain in other parts.
