"I come from a land Down Under," the man sang.

Right now, in front of me, I hear and feel Winter slowly approaching on icy cold feet.

And turning to look behind me, I see Autumn rustle broken brown leaves as it walks away.

Spring is a distant memory, crouched and hidden, waiting below the horizon in the warm morning sun.

Then I ask myself - "How do I manifest those words in a photograph?"

And thusly, Challenge accepted 😊

… and I forgot to tag Patrick. That’s why I prefer to do this on a real computer. 😕

Things still feel very very wintery here on the east coast of Canada. Will see what I can pull out of the bag 😂

Hey Patrik. I’ve just posted two contributions to ‘Spring’ by ‘re-stacking with comment’. Hope they’ve reached you ok and you’re able to put them in. The mix. Cheers, M

I see them but didn't get a notification and unfortunately I can't consider them as you didn't restack the post or tag me, there's a GIF in the post that show how to restack and tag me correctly if you're unsure.

Aussie here so will keep an eye out for what winter means to me as I go about my week! It's still been quite summery here so hopefully I get some good cold days to capture 😅

if it's still summer, then go for summer, it's all up to you as I merely opened the possibility to get some various views on things 😊

I skipped last challenge for not having any projects going on. But, here in Brasília, in the Brazilian Central Highlands, is autumn. But, quite frankly, he two seasons only: dry and wet. There are trees in bloom this time of the year, só I will give it a go.

This is a bummer. It wont let me re-stack. When I press the option to delete re-stack it makes not difference. maybe I’ve blown my chances 😥

I'd have cleared the cache memory in the browser or closed it fully then restart it. If that hadn't worked, I'd wait a day or two as there could be something with Substack that you're encountering. Still plenty of time to submit something, so no rush.

Hi Patrik. I just tried again referring to the GIF and think I’ve managed to do it this time. I tagged you, so I hope it’s worked. 🤞🏻

You got the post restacked but the tag didn't work, but I'll allow it! I'm counting it and it's logged! Thank you for participating!

Not a problem, Mark! If you're unsure, always best to refer back to the post and ask if something doesn't work.
