Bush fires and cool water

Abstract Sepia

Thank god it's cool again at last. After the heat wave which we have recently endured in Adelaide, I wouldn't care if I never had to live through another filthy Adelaide summer again. Pity the poor bastards in Victoria's bushfires. At last count, about 130 bodies had been found, and there are bound to be more. It appears also that somewhere in the region of 1000 homes have been destroyed. Hard to imagine what all those people who have lost everything they ever owned are going through. One of the more revolting aspects of these kinds of disasters is the way that our bloody politicians all scramble for the nearest charter plane so that they can get their mugs on the evening news hugging and kissing the bereft and the bereaved in order to convince us all of their innate humanity and compassion; utterly sickening. They would do better to stay the hell out of it and let those whose job it is to care for these unfortunates get on with their job.

There, I feel a lot better now that I have that off my chest. About the picture above; this picture was taken in December last year. It is part of the West End brewery Chrissy display reflected in the Torrens River. The image has then been artfully re worked by yours truly. In light of what I spoke of in the paragraph above, I felt that the water theme was apt. P.S. Facebook didn't work out as an appropriate place to utilize for viewing photo's, so we are going to try Picasa. Something has to work sometime!!!
Cheers for now.
