Wind blows over the water on a temporary river that looks more like an alien landscape than a river in the N.S.W. desert. The multiple colour come from minerals and vegetation that have been revitalized by recent floods.

    Such a wonderful piece of art indeed. Who would have thought that a barren piece of storage basin could generate such beautiful masterpieces. I have always been an ardent photographer myself who is a keen nature enthusiast. However, I have not had the chance to head overseas to pursue my interests. Thus, flora and fauna has been the key focus on most of my works. I love the skies and sunsets and sunrises too and how their color combos always blend perfectly together.
