All my life I have been drawn to the beach. You’ll have heard me saying it’s good for my soul, opens my mind and removes any stress ….
Pristine beach and clear water at Lucky Bay, Western Australia
14 Mile Beach, Western Australia
Then I travelled inland and discovered the cool serenity of lush pools like here at Millstream Chichester National Park in Western Australia.
Millstream Lily Pond, Western Australia
Millstream Lily Pond
And the famous water trough at Derby
Myall’s Cattle Trough, Derby, Western Australia
And the devastation when the water dries up …..
Dry river bed, Broken Hill, New South Wales
Drought at McKinley, Queensland
Water, not only necessary for the soul …..necessary for life.

I thought about this post a lot after I did it, and how without water there is no life. Thank you for following my blog.

Lovely selection of photos Rosemary! I agree with you regarding beaches, and WA has the best in Australia! And the contrast with your last photos is stark and thought provoking. Thanks for posting
