I have just looked up 'Black opals' and the stones are exquisite. Did you try your hand at fossicking? I wonder how long it will take for this old church to finally rust away?

Great colours Diana and a sense of very silent loneliness.
But lots of freedom !
Stay well my friend.

The Australia we don't get to see ... The old church made of rusty bits and the almost unearthly landscape go so well together in your beautiful composition, Diana. Fantastic colors, too!
