The other way to look at this photo is to remember where it was taken & when... on our last long roadtrip around New South Wales, last year when we couldn't go anywhere else because all the other States had closed their borders. Fast forward to now & the only difference is that we currently can't even leave Sydney. But anyway, this was taken on a deserted, remote, outback dirt road somewhere between Goodooga - a place even most people in New South Wales have never heard of - & Brewarrina - which a few more people may have heard of, but probably haven't been anywhere near. Until we rolled into town about 2 hours after this photo, the only thing I knew about Brewarrina was that it often featured in ABC weather reports, either for high temperatures, or occasional outback flooding, as it sits on the Barwon River... Now I also know it's home to the oldest existing man-made structures in the world - the fish traps on the river built by the local Aboriginal people 40,000+ years ago. They're still there & still in use... by the local birdlife anyway
An open road, in the middle of nowhere, without another person in sight... That's L-SP's & my idea of heaven
