Clarence River - Broadwater

On Pateman's Road/Old Ferry Road, at Ashby, is a magnificent view south towards Lawrence.
It takes in the sweep of the Clarence River as it winds down from Lawrence (in the distance, directly above the house in the foreground) and also the Broadwater "bulge" off the river.

This is a view which the owners of several homes see each time they look out their south-facing windows.

The panoramic photo (taken yesterday afternoon) will enlarge if clicked.


You probably can't make out two small brown dots in the paddock down under the trees to the left but this is one of them.......
........a small wallaby and she had a joey in her pouch.

Just another day in paradise!!

Oyster Shallows

Two photographs taken literally over the road from where we live. (Both enlarge when clicked).

This is the section of a backwater of the Clarence River known as Oyster Shallows and it leads into Lake Wooloweyah.

The first photograph looks south and the second is swung around 180 degrees and looks north, towards the Yamba Road bridge.



If I took a shot 90 degrees to the right of the one immediately above then you would be looking at the entrance to the Palm Lake Resort.
