HFF..a view to infinity

HFF..a view to infinity
Western Australia

The historical, heritage listed Carnarvon jetty. One mile long, it was used from 1890 till mid 20th century to transport livestock by sea to markets in Perth, thus avoiding hundreds of kilometres of droving the animals on foot through the red dust. Superseded by trucks and road trains, it has fallen into disrepair. Efforts are being made to restore it, though a recent cyclone caused considerable damage over and above the effects of time and neglect.

May sunshine, health and happiness fill your weekend!

Hi Diana
I like this picture very much!
It is a very different and exciting composition
I do wonder about the locomotives that ran on these rails, an dhow much strength is left in the bridge!
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

This does indeed transmit an awing sense of vastness, Diana, and the disrepair of the jetty adds an almost apocalyptic feel. Awesome image!
Belated HFF!
