Artist's Comments

This is almost too pretty a scene to submit. . . I took it while photographing a wedding on the weekend.

This is the Nepean River behind Sydney and the Blue Mountains in the background behind those wonderful jacarandas. The 'Nepean Belle' is a floating restaurant / reception venue that plies a stretch of the river. This shot is taken from the Log Cabin where the wedding and reception were held.

RESUBMISSION: Improved version of an old poorly scanned film image

Thanks. . . It's almost too pretty and civilised to be an Australian scene.
:iconspidercuffs:
Are you kidding? Look at the jacarandas - where else could it be at this time of year? :)
:iconbittersweetdreams:
Beautiful, dreamesque shot, Andy. It makes me think of the writings of Mark Twain, which you shouldn't take as an insult. :)
:iconwildplaces:
Thanks J. . . I would never take Twain as an insult. . . Huck Finn is an amazing novel which evokes the world of the south so well. The stunning word pictures of the river are just amazing. As is the moral dimension.
:iconwildplaces:
Well - fair enough. . . I told the couple they'd always have proof they'd had a November wedding.
:iconbittersweetdreams:
Then you see what I'm saying about this picture. :)
:iconwildplaces:
Sure do. . . Just looking for Jackson Island now.

It's probably the prettiest scene I've put up. . . I usually go for wild landscapes rather than well-groomed ones like this - but I couldn't resist it.
