Australian Landscape

Resplendent is the word to describe this beauty of a photo. Look at how the clouds are of the same shade as the hay beneath it. It makes the whole picture blends with each other and never fail to exude a sense of warmth.

Imagine a life in the countryside, the rural areas, where there's nothing to worry about each day. Though this picture is more of a wasteland after it failed to be commercialised, the beauty of it all gives it another new lease of life on its own. There's just the living, the hay, the disposed and the sky as our blanket. This is a life to behold.

But think of this: Will a person that has been in the viscous cycle of technology and competition in the industrial world ever get used to a life of no technology? Being thrown into the widerness now, will we be able to turn into savages or just prey to the vultures?

Sometimes I do think that our world is too comercialised; everything for a profit- making motive. revenue? profits? The what nots? every corner we turn to, competition is always the word to be held at arm's length for the fear of it all. But, it always exists. Yes, some will say that competition breeds success and its a viable option to bring up the quality of our work but at times, its just too much.

When can we ever get to see a sky like this, a scenery like this... in singapore? Probably its just me, but i hav never witnessed dawn and dusk- the splendid.

Beauty in the eye of the beholder;
