Crossing

A. Happy Fence Friday to each and every one of you. This is the start of the long causeway into the Leschenault Estuary in Australind WA.

Once upon a time (the mid-19th century) there was a proposal to build a port here for ships trading between Australia and India. Hence the name "Australind". Needless to say, it didn't happen. For the birds and fish which inhabit the estuary and inlet, this was a huge relief ... and for us, too. It is a lovely spot.

Old Owl replied to Gillian Everett:

It's not sepia, Gillian, it's the real thing apart from a minor adjustment to the white balance and to the exposure. It was a very dull day!
