Both photos were taken late on a winter’s afternoon, near Margaret River.
Running on sand, through shallow water, is a pleasure enjoyed by many humans, horses and dogs.

Natalie and Walt have just unwittingly delayed the promised leopard post!
(it will be the next one, I promise)
The photo alludes to one of my favourite Walt Whitman poems, from Leaves of Grass.
Most printed interviews with musicians are time-wasting, publicist-driven piffle.
A notable exception is The New Yorker interview, published today – worth reading, whether or not you admire/know Natalie Merchant’s singing/songs.
There aren’t a lot of people writing love songs to Walt Whitman.

Above: dude running after “his” dog, as rain dimples the surface of Smiths Beach’s shallows,
Below: Big, wintry sky, Indian Ocean.
Both are colour photos, taken when shades of grey “ruled”, briefly.

A surfer-dude’s dog has no difficulty amusing itself, alone on the shore, whilst its “owner” is “out there”, riding the waves.

…most people who visit Margaret River – frequent visitors included – have never set foot in, laid eyes on, or paddled a canoe, in some of the area’s choicest places.

Four kilometres south of the little town of Augusta is Cape Leeuwin, atop which sits the Australian mainland’s tallest lighthouse.
The much-promoted notion that this is where two oceans meet is highly debatable; arguably, the Indian Ocean laps both sides of Cape Leeuwin.
Regardless, it is our continent’s bottom left hand “corner”, and the Augusta/Leeuwin “corner” is a wonderful place.

All pictures taken on a very short walk from Wrenwood Chalets, a few minutes drive from Augusta, and half an hour’s drive from Margaret River.
