The sky often feels vast and luminous, especially in the late afternoon when the light softens, casting long, warm shadows that give the rolling hills a painterly texture. Farmhouses dot the horizon like scattered punctuation marks, their corrugated iron roofs gleaming under the Australian sun, hinting at lives lived in close communion with the land.
