This is lovely and peaceful looking Tania. I'm going to have to practice doing some scenery shots instead of flowers and cats. You have such lovely scenery over your way though. Not saying its not lovely here but you have to go and find it or travel to it. The lack of hills makes it harder.

Along this coastline 2 weeks ago we had a Southern Right Whale up close to shore. We often get Seals and penguins. Very exciting for someone surounded by cows!!! LOL (I live in Dairy cow country)
