dry land




New South Wales in Australia has been hit by serious drought and in many parts there hasn't been any real rain for years. The land is parched and stock has nothing to graze on. It's one of the most serious problems in Australia, although as city dwellers can still get water out of a tap without thinking about it, there is not enough concern yet. But the city dams are drying up and as their water supplies diminish everyone is realising that is a problem which needs clear understanding and good solutions. Things which politicians are not famous for.

Your photos never fail to kindle my urge to buy a digital camera. (lucky me, tomorrow is my payment day) I always enjoy your pictures and writings. You such a smart piece of goods! :)
