Lake Burley Griffin changes with the seasons. During winter, the trees are stark and bare, long thin branches resemble long hairs drifting in the wind. #australia #canberra #lovemytown

Everyone's read about Nassim Nicholas Taleb's book, Black swan, right? Well only few have seen one! Beautiful sunset on Canberra's lake. Nos that much visited by tourists, canberra is well worth it. it was a planned city, build from nothing at the beginning of the century. It is a cyclist paradise, with beautiful cycling lane away from traffic. Cycling round the lake can be a great weekend idea. Jogging or hiking round it can be a fantastic objective too. a bit of an oldy picture so sorry for the pixels! #Canberra #Australia #sunset #lifeatExpedia #cycling #Swan #hiking
