Nature's Sense of Humor - When a Grain Field Becomes a Desert Oasis!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, Steffen & Alexandra Sailer capture the whimsical side of Mother Nature in Mildura, Victoria. As we gaze upon the grain-growing country, it seems like she decided to play a little prank on the cereal plants! With an arid drought wreaking havoc, these poor grains hardly receive enough humidity to sprout and develop. But fear not! In this vegetable and fruit growing area nestled amidst Australia's desert landscape, miracles do happen. While Mildura relies on the mighty Murray River for its bountiful produce, unfortunately, the grain-growing areas are too far away from its life-giving waters. Instead, they depend solely on rain - or lack thereof! As we marvel at this detail of a very sparsely overgrown grain field, one can't help but chuckle at nature's sense of humor. It's as if she whispered to these resilient crops: "You thought you were going to grow big and tall? Not today!". But hey, who needs height when you have character? So let us raise our glasses (of water) to these determined grains that refuse to give up despite their dry surroundings. They may be small in stature but big in spirit! Cheers to their tenacity and cheers to Steffen & Alexandra Sailer for capturing this hilarious moment where even under challenging circumstances, nature finds a way to make us smile.
