I will confess that while devastated by the forest destruction I am mesmerised by the post-apocalyptic colouring of the trees.
What a magnificent tree this spotted gum would have been.
It's a beautiful colour now. I love the way the Bush revives after such things and how new life springs up from the forest floor. It may take a wee bit longer this time methinks as it was so huge. Love the goldenness of this scene.
@777margo@jamibann@gosia thanks for the comments, on one hand it is beautiful and on the other it somehow seems wrong to 'enjoy' the destruction! @ludwigsdiana@seacreature thanks so much I appreciate your positive comments, always good to get independent feedback @sangwann thanks, I'm not religious, but WHAT HAVE WE DONE! @pistache thank you Clare, I think its good for the world to see what's happening @pdulis@mittens@mjalkotzy yes it is dreadfully sad and desolate and its not over yet @blueberry1222@cocobella@casablanca@haskar Recovery is clear in the new growth in the trees and cycads, but unfortunately those thousands of little animal lives are gone forever. @louannwarren thank yo so much Lou Ann, you've made my day:) @carole_sandford@elisasaeter@randystreat I'm glad my 365 friends appreciate this rather sad beauty, thank you all.
Thank you Wylie for all your images of the fire destruction. They make me sad, especially thinking about all the animals that were hurt. But to see the leaves and little trees starting to sprout again is wonderful in the midst of all that destruction.
