Bay of Martyrs, Peterborough, Great Ocean Road for Sunday Best

 


Golden hour at Bay of Martyrs where historical genocide took place on local aboriginal population. 


Almost every coast I visited was filled with terrible history. Not a good feel walking these trails. 

I am heading to a volcano crater this morning. Also checking out a few limestone caves. Well, I hope I can find them lol.

    History and current time is full of violence. It seems to be the nature of many. It is a vibrant photo, and you were blessed to see it.

    Es terrible que tan bello lugar esté asociado a un genocidio. Que tengas suerte en tu búsqueda.

    Does the name Bay oF Martyrs appear on modern maps? I didn't see the name, so perhaps it is a shocking part of Australian history, best silenced.

    Isn't it just such a wonderful coastline, but also steeped in tragedy.

    Terrible history(I was able to find some of it online). But, such interesting colors on the rocks - one of the rocks looked like a rusted boat.

    As the world appears to be moving in a seriously backward direction, I fear that we may forget...

    Creo que lo peor de esta foto es la historia que guarde este bello lugar, por cierto esos islotes parecen barcos acercándose a la costa.

    Saludos.

    It's so beautiful and hard to believe of such goings on. I feel the same way when I walk the battlefields in Manassas. Hard to comprehend the horror of it all.

    The colours are stunning! History's pages are filled with atrocities all over the globe... Thanks for taking part in the "My Sunday Best" meme.
