this plethora of river systems runs over 300kms, from the mighty clarence, up to the tweed, on the nsw/qld border. all the copius amount of river entrances, unfold from the bars of the the golden sand, clear watered, surf pumping pacific north coast and stretch out to the foothills of the great dividing range. they are surrounded by little colonial towns, world heritage rainforests, ancient volcanoes, endless rolling hills and deep river gorges.
but more importantly its the river system, and roads, that link my family together.

This is one of those photos.

Petey...............
I shit you not. You're famous already, even though you may not know it.
Your work never ends to amaze me. I aint been around much recently, but ......freekin hell, when I do check in, the first thing that I somehow end up on is one of your pics, and this is the first one since the last time ....god knows how many months ago (if that makes any sense).
Anyway....this is gold (no pun intended), all kudos to you and the river system that links all you guys, and a big up to you for the shot mate.....keep it rockin. Your headspace is totally where it should be.
It's probably going to take me the next few nights to get through your recent posts.
HI is on for me through Feb if your interested.
