    Unhappy From down under

    Guys, things are quite emotional here in Australia with the Victorian bush fires.
    There a lot of volunters helping the community who lost the lot.
    Among this volunters are people form the 4WD comunity.
    In THIS link are some photos taken by 200tdi(Rob), a member of our LR forum here in Oz AULRO.
    His photography is very powerful and I would like you to appreciate it.
    Kind regards

    Hello Arthur.
    I am so saddend by the Fires In Victoria. Wish I could do more for the poor soles.
    When the Country comes together like it has It makes u Proud to be An Aussie.
    PS Good to hear the Police are catching the B......s Resposible for some of the fires as well as the B......s trying to scam money .
    Also the low lifes running around stealing from abandoned homes should be taken out and shot in the legs.

    Take care mate.
    cheers

    Having recently moved to Australia and been watching the news, I can't even imagine the horror, death and destruction caused by these bush fires. A real eye opener for us. On the other hand, the endless stories of compassion, support and love have given us a much better appreciation of the great spirit of mateship here in Australia. Thanks for sharing these pictures and they are moving. The human spirit will prevail...

    Some very powerful photos there


    As a fellow volunter fire fighter I wish all involved, gods speed and a safe return as the fires are not out yet.


    Times like this, the spirit shown by my countryman makes me a very proud Australian
