Just got back a few hours ago and spotted this bench I’d never noticed before at the Melbourne Duty Free. I am linking this to Judy’s Bench Anniversary and for Xingfumama’s Pull Up a Seat Challenge

Miyama’s Timeless Landscape
Nestled in the mountains of Kyoto Prefecture, Miyama feels like a step back in time. The thatched-roof farmhouses, mist-covered hills, and quiet fields create a landscape that seems untouched by the rush of modern life. It’s a scene where tradition and nature blend seamlessly — a perfect moment for this week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge, hosted…
Tuesday Streetart: A bench in Berlin – 108
You probably know by now that I love sharing photos my kids send me from their adventures. This time it’s from Tim — he went to a festival where his work was shortlisted (so proud!). On his free days, he thought of his mumma and sent me some great shots of murals, street art, doors,…
Monday walk in Bruno’s Garden
Backstory: On Black Saturday, February 7, 2009, a massive bushfire tore through Marysville in Victoria. It destroyed the town and wiped out Bruno Torfs’ home, gallery, and beautiful art garden. Almost all of his 300 handmade sculptures were lost in the fire. Despite everything, Bruno chose to stay in Marysville and slowly rebuilt his home…
Back to walking in The Botanic Gardens
For Jo’s Monday Walk One doesn’t have to travel far to experience the beauty of the world. Recently, Jack and I took a leisurely walk through Wilson’s Botanic Park, surrounded by the vibrant colours of spring blooms. There is the scent of blossoms in the air making it a perfect little escape close to home….
Lugano in Monochrome
There’s no set theme for this week’s Monochrome Madness Challenge, so I’ve decided to feature monochrome shots from my travels. Lugano is a charming city set beside the shimmering Lake Lugano and surrounded by mountains, located in the Swiss region of Ticino, right near the border with Italy. The market in Lugano is a delight…
A Bench in Sorrento
Outside a little vintage shop in Sorrento, I found this charming bench. The town, sharing its name with its Italian counterpart, is also a seaside gem in Victoria, Australia. Here the ocean air mixes with coastal charm. I am linking this to Jude’s Bench Anniversary Challenge
Round Bench
I found this on a tucked-away spot in Port Campbell on the way home from our Great Ocean Road trip in 2024. For Jude’s Bench Challenge
Curvy Benches
These curved benches are not only unique—they’re also wonderfully versatile. People can sit together and chat, or turn slightly away to enjoy a quiet moment on their own. It’s a playful yet thoughtful design that invites both connection and reflection. I am linking this to Jude’s Bench Challenge and for Xingfumama’s Pull Up a Seat…
Colourful Benches
I don’t know about you, but there’s something about colourful chairs and benches that I find so irresistible. Maybe I’m just a vibrant kind of gal—drawn to bold murals, splashes of public art, and anything that brightens up a space. Haha! Here are benches for Jude’s Bench Anniversary Challenge which I found on our trip…
Blue seats in Cloudehill
CLOUDEHILL GARDENS & NURSERY These photos were taken on April 23 while showing my brother-in-law around some local sights. We visited Cloudehill in Olinda, nestled in the heart of the Dandenong Ranges. The weather was just right—cool, fresh, and sunny enough to enjoy a relaxed walk through the gardens. I am linking this to Xingfumama’s…
Bench by the Lake
I saw this Bench challenge from Jude through Margarets’s post. So here is my first entry to this challenge… of a bench I saw while I was walking on the lakefront in Te Anau, New Zealand. I am also linking it to Johnbo’s Cellpic Sunday. A peaceful place…
