The Changing Seasons – November

It seems like only yesterday that I wrote my first Changing Seasons post.  That was back in January, now here we are in November with only a month to go before the series is complete. The weather has been warmer this month so I’ve been out a few times wandering the streets of the city […]

Bench Series – October

I’m contributing this photograph to Jude’s bench series which she has been hosting on her site Travel Words. There have been some fabulous  images posted throughout the year and I encourage you to check the site out for yourselves. This month Jude is looking for a bench with someone or something sitting on it. I included […]

The Changing Seasons – October

I missed September in The Changing Seasons series as I was away in Fiji. Unfortunately it was a pretty important month to miss as so much changed in Melbourne in those few short weeks. Before I left the plane trees outside my window and throughout the city were bare. When I returned they were covered with […]

The Changing Seasons – August

There was a hint of the Spring warmth to come last weekend when the temperature reached 17 degrees. Unfortunately today is back to being cold, damp and grey. This has been our chilliest winter for 17 years and I am definitely over it. Bring on Spring! Despite the bad weather, I’ve managed to get out […]

Weekly Photo Challenge – Symbol

I’m very late for this week’s photo challenge.  This is partly due to feeling pretty lousy with a bad cold for most of the week but also because I’ve struggled to think of something to publish. But trawling through my photos one more time looking for inspiration it suddenly became obvious. What better symbol of Melbourne […]

Weekly Photo Challenge – Door

Door is the theme for this week’s challenge. Easy! Well so I thought until I started trawling through my archives and discovered that I have so many photos of doors. So which do I post? I took this photo in AC/DC Lane on one of my recent city wanders – if you look closely you can […]

Weekly Photo Challenge – Muse

What is my Muse when it comes to taking photographs? What subject do I turn to frequently, more inspired each time? These are the questions we’ve been asked to consider for this week’s photo challenge. For me it’s the streets of Melbourne. Whenever I’m looking for inspiration or I want to try a new technique with my […]

Weekly Photo Challenge – Roy G. Biv

ROY G. BIV is the theme for this week’s challenge.  I’d never heard this term before – it’s an acronym to help people remember the seven colours of the rainbow – Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. We’ve been given the choice of posting a single photo representing a rainbow, or seven photos depicting each […]

Melbourne streets

Today I went for a very long walk through Collingwood and Fitzroy and then into the city. These are some of the people I saw along the way.

The Changing Seasons – June

I took my new camera out today to take some photos for this month’s Changing Seasons series. This series was initiated in January by a fellow blogger, Cardinal Guzman from Oslo, and has people from all over the world participating. A few weeks ago we had a very chilly start to Winter, but this weekend was almost […]
