Afternoon All.
Today's post is about the May challenge for "Off the Rails Blog Spot", which is a mood board of colours ranging from , yellow to orange, black and grey.
I really had to put some thought into what i was going to use, thought of the bush fire photos from around by brother in laws farm at first but no, I came across these photos when looking for the bush fire photos. Taken when travelling back in 1984 on a trip to Alice Springs for an Apex convention and our visit to Ayers Rock as it was know then. Now called Uluru. I thought the colours in the photo matched in well
