An Australian Magpie sits on top of a headstone in the Ballaarat Old Cemetery - the shy is pink and golden with the last light of the sun hitting them from below
"Twilight Keeper"
Upon a stone of stories past,
The magpie rests as shadows cast.
Its feathers gleam in fading light,
Black and white in hues of night.

Image is of a foggy view of a lake, with winter-bare trees silhouetted in the foreground
Is it foggy or misty?

Image of a perfectly still lake with trees along the left edge. The trees show it's autumn and the remaining leaves are golden brown. The sky is a perfect blue, with no clouds. The place is Lake Wendouree (go away) in the town of Ballaarat in Victoria, Australia
Lake Wendouree in late autumn.
Such a rare moment - not a breath of wind and a bluesky day!

Image is of the Ballarat Statuary House in the Ballarat Botanical Gardens. The outside windows reflect images of trees across the image of statues. More info at: https://shorturl.at/FMQhn
Through the mirrors of my mind
Time after time
I see reflections of you and me
Reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me
The Ballarat Statuary House is stunning in of itself, but I really love the reflections merging into the image.

Two black swans, drifting towards two boatsheds, on still lake water as the sunset turns into night time. An empty park bench overlooks the scene
In the gloaming oh, my darling
when the lights are dim and low
And the quiet shadows falling
softly come and softly go
by Meta Caroline Orred
An empty parkbench overlooks the scene
