I like number 5 - mainly because I can almost smell it, hear it and feel the spray - I want to get in it.

I vote Number 2 - those colours and the sunlight are amazing! Close thought this months Numbers 4 and 3 were my runners up because the blue of the water in both are just so intense!

I like this shot! I feel the strong falls of the water. It only shows that Australia has a great nature!


I feel I have to stand up for NZ here... they may be our cousin but Australia can't take all the credit for its amazing landscapes and natural features. Nice comment for Australia none the less Patricia.

Number 2 has remarkable colours, so it gets my vote
