The wind made this crazy basket weave pattern in the sky.
I wondered if that was because the winds were blowing different directions.
It was certainly a beautiful sky

Direction Logs with Aboriginal Art

Direction Logs, originally uploaded by Ladymaggic.

There were many posts such as this with beautiful dot paintings depicting the life in the Bush.
I wondered at those who had painted these works.
Were they still in town or had they moved on leaving their footprint behind
Most of the Directional paintings on the logs were badly damaged and neglected
