Drought and flooding rain

"I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of drought and flooding rains,...."

This looks fantastic, although I know it must be pretty hard living with droughts and then flooding, but it looks amazing!

The others have said it all, and it's beautiful - so different from the greens that we mostly have here.

lovely colors - amazing how it does feel dusty in that area and very wet in the other - great shot, Georgie!
Posted 36 months ago. ( permalink )

The composition is perfect, and those colors make me feel so warm. Thinking about you and my other Aussie friends. Hope the rains bring some reprieve from the heat.

Your fantastic color picture is my winner!

Hi

We have found interest in your photos and would like you to participate in an exhibition project about climate change, aiming towards a sustainable future. The exhibition is at The Danish Pavillon at the 11th International Architecture Biennale in Venice, September 2008.

We are mainly looking for three kinds of photos

1. Images of “pure” nature
2. Images of cultivated nature
3. Aesthetic images of natural disasters. (flooding, drought, tornados ect)

In general we are looking for beautiful images presenting nature in all kinds of ways.

You will not receive any financial founds - but you will credited by name - and your image will have the opportunity to part of a highly respected architecture exhibition, with more than 80 000 visitors.

We encourage you to recommend any of your friends who you may find of interest to this project.

Would you like to participate?

Please write me a Flickr-mail.

Kind regards

Good Day!

I work for an architecture firm, and we were wondering if we could use this image in a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Power point presentation on Water Resources, and Water Issues. We will not be using this presentation for monetary gain.

Thank you in advance!
