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…
Windows of an Art Shop
This is Dean’s Art in Preston and I found the window design cute. It wasn’t open yesterday but even the closed sign is nice. I am linking this to Monday Window
Healesville
Healesville is located less than an hour from Melbourne, right in the heart of the Yarra Valley’s renowned food and wine region. With nothing better to do, Hubby and I decided to go on a day trip. I am linking this to Natalie’s Photographing Public Art Challenge and to Xingfumama’s Pull Up a Seat Challenge….
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….
Dreamy
This week’s challenge, hosted by Ann-Christine, is all about the theme “Dreamy.” I didn’t think I had any photos that fit, but I decided to give it a try anyway, here goes! There’s a soft whisper of green, where sunlight filters through leaves like fragments of a dream. A canvas ever-changing, blush tones, golden glows,…
Autumn
This week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge, hosted by Johnbo, invites us to celebrate the beauty of Autumn. No matter where you are in the world, there’s something truly magical about autumn. It’s my favourite season — and I bet I’m not alone in thinking that. In Victoria, Australia, the countryside glows in rich shades of amber,…
Window within a Window
There’s something quietly charming about seeing one old window from the frame of another at the Old Cheese Factory. For Monday Window Challenge
City Mouse or Country Mouse?
The tale of City Mouse and Country Mouse is one of Aesop’s enduring fables, and it has been retold for centuries to highlight the contrast between two very different ways of living. And this is the theme for Tina’s Lens Artist PhotoChallenge this week… are you a City Mouse or a Country Mouse? I’ve always…
Window’s Reflection
In the window’s reflection, trees sway gently along the street, and buildings stand behind them, soft and still. The glass blends sky, leaves, and walls into one quiet picture. This is my post for this week’s Monday Window Challenge from PR.
Floral Friday – 15
Daffodils are the first cheerful signs of spring. It shows their bright yellow trumpets and delicate petals to remind us that even after the coldest season, warmth and light will always return.
Collingwood Mural Doors
Tim was here in Melbourne just a few months back, but it feels like a lifetime ago. Missing him and can’t wait for the next visit. But that’s not really what this post is about. It just ties in because we stumbled across these door murals in Collingwood while out for dinner and a catch-up…
Tuesday Streetart: Mural Window – 103
This is such a stunning piece of artwork in Swan Street, Richmond. It is a fantastic collaboration by David Hooke’s (aka Meggs) and one of my favourites, Matt Adnate. I am also linking this to Monday Window Challenge
Three figures, a bench, green helmet
I was walking down this street when I came across a piece of public art—three figures standing together. Nearby, someone rested on a bench, a bike parked just behind him. But one detail caught my eye: the green helmet. Who does it belong to? Natalie’s Photographing Public Art Challenge Xingfumama’s Pull Up a Seat Challenge…
Tuesday Streetart – 102
Last Sunday was Father’s Day here in Melbourne. We had lunch at a restaurant in Lygon Street, Brunswick East. Then I saw these murals while walking to the car. Outside an Italian Restaurant A Japanese Restaurant A restaurant with Live music And this one seems to be a beer place.
Echoes of Quiet Moments
This week Ritva leads the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge with the theme Quiet Moments. Here are some of my photos that invited me to pause, breathe, and see the world through softer, gentler eyes. A foggy start to the day, when the world softened and hushed, as if wrapped in a blanket, where even familiar places feel new…
Melbourne & its Mural Doors
Melbourne’s laneways are alive with colour, where murals spill across doors and walls. In Hosier Lane, the art shifts constantly—fresh paint layered over what came before. It’s the classic spot to show off to visitors from overseas. But wander a little further, and you’ll find other laneways that feel even more vibrant and full of…
At Studio & Co
Step through the doors of Studio & Co. It is a creative hub located in Moorooduc, which is a township within the Mornigton Peninsula. For Dan’s Thursday Doors Challenge And for Xingfumama’s Pull Up a Seat Challenge
I licked it, so it’s Mine
Came across this signage on a shopfront while hubby and I took a spontaneous little trip to Mornington, Victoria. It said, “I licked it, so it’s mine.” Was wonderful to have this on a warm-ish day like today. Debbie’s Six Word Saturday
St Paul’s Cathedral
St Paul’s Cathedral is a striking Anglican church that anchors Melbourne’s busiest intersection, standing directly opposite Federation Square and just across from the iconic Flinders Street Station. Built between 1880 and 1931 in the neo-Gothic style, the cathedral is one of the city’s most recognisable landmarks and remains Victoria’s most visited place of worship. Light…
Movement in Monochrome
Monochrome night shots turn lights and shadows into pure drama. Water movement shows softness, flowing gently in black and white. Daylight roads in monochrome show quiet lines and textures we often miss. For Leanne’s Monochrome Madness Challenge
Windows of Skyscrapers
For this week’s Monday Window Challenge, I’m sharing some windows from the skyscrapers in Melbourne’s CBD. The mix of glass and steel against the skyline always catches my eye, especially when the sunlight reflects in unexpected ways. Looking up at these towering buildings gives you a whole new perspective of the city.
Butterfly door
Found this pretty door in Richmond, Victoria, just a stone’s throw from Melbourne’s CBD. It was partly hidden, but if you know me, I can’t resist pausing to admire a bit of character and charm—especially when it’s tucked away like a little secret waiting to be noticed. The peeling paint, the worn handle … all…
Monday Walk in Melbourne CBD
As expected, I did plenty of walking while showing my cousin and cousin-in-law around during their short stay in Melbourne. I’m starting with a walk from their third day here—just in time to join this week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge, which has the theme “Market.” Walk Our day started with an 11am mass at the St…
Silent Cellpic Sunday
A quiet stroll along St Kilda Pier with my visiting cousin, looking back at Melbourne’s CBD, partly veiled in a soft haze. Photo taken with my iPhone 13 Pro Max.
At Prahran Square
Iwagumi Air Scape by ENESS is a tribute to the Japanese love for natural rock formations. It is a larger than life temporary sculpture at the Prahran Square which started yesterday. During the day, visitors can walk through giant inflatable forms that look like massive stones. As night falls, the installation comes alive with colourful…
Wordless Red Wednesday – 42
BRIGHTON BEACH, VICTORIA Simply Red
The walls I wandered past
To be honest, I had no clue what to write for this week’s Live and Learn theme from Tina. I was drawing a complete blank. Then Sarah from Travel With Me suggested, “Why not talk about the murals you often post?” And I thought—yeah, why not? I always seem to find myself stopping for street…
Hello from my window to yours
Just us, framed by a charming little window in a red(ish) brick wall… with me and Jack soaking up the sunshine. A quirky find on our wander, and too good not to share! Hopefully this one doesn’t spook you like my last two posts 😅 If it does, I might just curl up into a…
Through the Giant Smile We Go
There’s something timeless about walking through the giant smiling face of Luna Park Melbourne. Though it may seem scary it is just such a fun place to be. I am linking this to: Becky’s Simply Red Debbie’s Six Word Saturday
