Near the Yanco Weir

Just out of Leeton NSW upstream from the Euoley Bridge is a beautiful, restful place where the Murrumbidgee flows. There are tall gums and tiny flowers, and the old Yanco weir with water meandering past. The water parts just before the weir and decides if it will fall over the old wall or take on the gates of the more modern version.

Free brush stokes mimic the water and the bright happy abstract flowers are the feeling one gets when you find such a special place
