Life in Color : Purple

--Among the best themes of the month from National Geographic...

Purple is a versatile color. Combining the fire of red with the serenity of blue, it has the ability to soothe as well as excite passion. Purple is prevalent in nature in everything from eggplants to amethysts, and humans have adopted it as a symbol of royalty.

Here, Ross Bridge in Tasmania is cloaked in a mauve sunset. The beautiful sandstone span, built by convicts in 1836, is one of Australia's oldest and is decorated with an impressive array of carvings.

听摄影社的kaki们说，塔斯马尼亚州可是澳洲自然生态保存得最完善的地方~

1/3的地区被列为国家公园... 可以想象，这个地方应该很美丽 =)

希望下一个旅游季可以把她列入行程之中~

(虽然讲她已经入围了两年，可是一直被淘汰掉 =P..)
