Another unusual garden feature in the Enchanted Maze Garden at Arthurs Seat.
It is a little like an upended piece of old farm machinery!

A wintry view along Dromana beach looking toward Mount Martha.
Often the clouds seem to hang very low here on the peninsula.

When I have seen youngsters learning to sail, they are in brightly sailed craft and always with safety vests on.

Zoomed from Dromana pier, a view of horses being exercised in early morning light at nearby Safety Beach.
Some Mornington Peninsula beaches have been allocated a space and time for exercising race horses.

A view of Arthurs Seat mountain in the distance from Schnapper Point, Mornington Peninsula.
It was a soft Winter's afternoon with a little play of sea mist round the base of the mountain.
A magic moment
The charm of the sea and sky
And a touch of wings

Arthurs Seat State Park is a popular walking area.
One of the longest walks - Two Bays Walking Track - is from Dromana through varying terrains from mountain to country farmlands to Cape Schanck on Bushrangers Bay, Bass Strait.
The length of the track is 26km.
But if you don't have the time to enjoy the full walk, there are many mini versions along the way like this delightful Kings Falls Circuit Walk.
The scents of bushland
The varied scents of farmland

Old travelling ways
Journeys open to Nature
Once upon a time
Heronswood in Dromana is a beautiful garden world in all seasons.
In winter, the bonus is being able to photograph the old home more easily because the trees are leafless and don't block the view.
The house was designed in 1866 in the Gothic Revival style.
Granite blocks were quarried from the nearby Arthurs Seat mountain.
The gardens have evolved as cottage and organic gardens.
Time in a garden
Like living close to old worlds
Like breathing Nature
Blossoms are blooming everywhere on the Mornington Peninsula.
And Spring is not supposed to begin until September!

It's not often that shadows - when it's sunny - take up more space in the main street of Sorrento than do the people.
But in the winter time, when the holiday crowds have gone, this is quite possible.
