I visit Bankstown pretty frequently now that my Nan is in a nursing home out that way. I love being the only Aussie wondering this street (aptly named Saigon Place) and having coffee in the cafes and checking out the grocery shops. I love all the different fruits in the Asian stores and love buying heaps of cheap Asian greens. The colours and textures are fascinating.
Have a great weekend ox
We had a fantastic morning at the Queen Victoria markets checking out all the wonderful produce, I really wish we had the equivalent in Sydney. Such a great place to get wonderful seafood, meat, cheeses, chocolates, fruit and vegies all under one roof. We will need to go back for longer than a weekend next time so we can actually cook with some of the great food available.
I haven’t been on a rollercoaster for at least 15 years, but I broke the drought at Luna Park and went on a ride that was great fun. Although I do admit that I was more scared than the seven year old girls in front of us!
Gorgeous patisserie windows in St Kilda…mmm yum.
I love Melbourne and I was lucky enough to head there for a weekend to take some shots around and about the place. I LOVED the graffiti in the alleyways even though it was a little hard to shoot in the pouring rain! Such an eclectic (and at times raunchy) mix of images…I hope you enjoy.
A few weeks ago I went along with an amateur photography group I am a part of to take photos from the top deck of the city sightseeing bus- the double-decker red one, for those who live in Sydney and have seen it. It was an interesting day because the bus also had commentary on Sydney’s history- stuff I didn’t know, like the Coca-Cola sign at Kings Cross is heritage listed! It was incredibly tricky taking photos from the bus with all the movement and trying to get my camera through the safety bars, but it was really interesting to see the city from above pavement level.
I really love shapes, design and texture so really enjoyed taking shots of buildings with all their angles and glass and colour.
Thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend ox
