Why you sorry? you're entitled to think what you like. Just like I am. Just because we see beauty in different things doesn't make either of us wrong

I didnt expect to find excitment. Was there for work. But if it was attractive it would be a major plus. I have worked in landscapes across the world and in many other deserts, but the Oz one was the fist that just said boring. All of the others had something that raised the spirit. The only advantage is that for me in my line of work it is easy to operate in. But still boring

Guess which continent these photos were taken in.....

Clue, it's the really dull, dry, brown, hot and overrated one...
