Wow... what an achievement... after years of waiting and trying... finally Australia qualified for the World Cup. Congrats mate... am sure half the population is having hangover now... must be a great time to be in the stadium that day. Again ... well done. No offence to Uruguay but this time the aussies deserve the chance.

I was mesmerised and awed by the elegance and beauty of Australian indegenous art... Aboriginal art. Mainly the ones in caves and huge rocks. Its been around for so long... thousands of years... one of the oldest continous cultural tradition. What amazes me is the use of bright colours and the ingenius preparation of paint from soil, minerals, plants and seeds. This is the beginning of man using his creative talent in mixing and matching colours. These people have an eye for colour coordination in their work long before Europeans, Indians or Chinese. Even today... contemporary aboriginal art maintains the true nature of their art... symbolism, dreams and animal motifs.
