#6 :- WALTZING MATILDA by Banjo Patterson.

Australia's 'unofficial' National Anthem. Happy Australia Day.

Waltzing Matilda has been labelled Australia's 'unofficial' national anthem. The song (originally a poem) was written by Australian poet, Banjo Paterson in the late 19th Century while he was staying at Dagworth Station, a cattle station near Winton in Central West Queensland.

Is there an image that encapulates the iconic Aussie spirit?

I”m sitting out on the verandah, the clouds are threatening rain, the radio is being tuned between Tripple M and country ABC. A bit like the lyrics of Gang gajang, ‘Sounds of Then, a.k.a. This is Australia.’ Please enjoy my images of life at The Oaks. Enjoying what it means to me to be an Australian.

The first image was taken by Simon on his Samsung Quad Camera and modified in the Samsung GalaxtyA21s. The middle image uses the same photo of Simon's and makes it POP. The photographer, Rob Langlois. https://bluethumb.com.au/robert-langlois
