Bailey's Beach Again - a photo on Flickriver

            In my previous post from Bailey’s Beach, I quoted the national parks description "bright orange lichen encrusts the granite boulders, contrasting spectacularly with the whiter-than-white sand and turquoise water".

A few sharp-eyed folks kindly pointed out that, thanks to the late-day light, my “whiter-than-white” sand had taken on a rather majenta mood. Fair enough, let's just say it was white-adjacent.

So to come good on my sand-colour claims, here’s a more balanced earlier view from Bailey’s Beach, looking across to beautiful Binalong Bay where the sand is finally white, the water is still turquoise, and the lichen is as outrageously orange as ever. Google Bay of Fires and you will  see so many fantastic images, day & night of this stunning area. Not as good as mine though of course ;)

I must admit, I’ve always been fond of going outdoors. It's much easier than going out windows.

Some friends laughed when I told that one to them. If it doesn’t make you smile here on Flickr, I’ll know I’m not remotely funny. 😉

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to comment on my photos, they are greatly appreciated!
