As I sit on the slight hill in the open high country of Australia, the sun starts to set, the amazing shades of purple, orange, blues and other fulfilling colours. You sit and wonder why these colours are so bright and why it is these colours that have been reflected to make such a beautiful sight. The silhouette of the beautiful rolling hills that are covered in beautiful and luscious gums, that have so many slight different shades of green and the odd rotted out dead or dying tree. The sights of the colours of the day are all coming to life in the sky for everyone and everything to see. As you come back to life from gazing at such a beautiful scene you hear the cockatoos returning home to there huge single tree in the maze of dead and alive gums, the noise of the animals that live in the dead silent paddocks that are surrounding you catches your ear, the noises of the earth coming to life as they wait for there food or call there babies to come home and be home safe, from the total darkness of the night that is laying ahead, the pure darkness only just around the corner, how beautiful nature is at the end of the day.
