A cold morning

Merriwa, NSW

We spent the night camped at Merriwa which is in the Upper Hunter, a farming area badly affected by the current drought.

I knew it was very chilly on the other side of the doona so I went outside early hoping get a few nice white frosty photographs but there was none.  Our water pipes were frozen solid but the air too dry to form frost.

So I took a shot of the church in the distance surrounded by winter trees and softly lit with the rising sun then went back to bed for another couple of hours.

A poem for today
