Bushfire Blues

Extending the Queens Birthday long weekend by taking Thurs and Fri off. A drive through the Blue Mountains today , ravaged by bushfires earlier this year. Some pockets of new growth and some still charred and eerily silent like this one.

Nicely captured. The area does look very charred.

The turquoise blue sky accentuates the burnt landscape. Sensitively captured.

It's a surreal landscape isn't it?

@shellee thank you Shellie, it was quite sobering driving through it all @helenw2 eerily so :) @miss_mollyThank you Molly, the sunny wintery day did seem at odds with the charred scene @annied it certainly is and the scale of these ones is shocking.

I like the low viewpoint. We have family in SW Sydney and also in Victoria (thankfully all stayed safe) and were so sorry to see the damage and loss of life, both human and animal, caused by the fires.
