Diminishing Returns
I sometimes wonder why people don't actually visit the building site before finalising colours. This poor building is pleasant enough, but is finished in a colour which is neither blue nor green, and...
Bird of Paradise
Today's date is 08/08/08, so I couldn't resist posting at 08:08!The Bird of Paradise flower (Strelitzia reginae) is actually a native of South Africa and derives it's common name because of a supposed...

View from the Cafe
It's cooler, and a bit damp, and early Sunday afternoon, so all the diners have gone, leaving the tables and chairs alone with the view of the coast.Montville...

Pedal Car
It's one thing to import cheaply made pedal cars that look cute and sell them at a huge markup, but it doesn't pay to leave them out in the rain if they start to rust after just a few minutes!Montvill...

Mr Frog
There seems to be a veritable plethora of strange fibreglass charicature animals of late, the kind that were once described as novelty smoker's stands, except now smoking is a forbidden pass time most...
TV Reception
Wouldn't you think the TV arial would be pointed towards the transmitter? Perhaps living this close there's no need to even turn on the set!Montville...

I seem to have taken a few photographs of late, of inanimate objects trying to be animate. In the good old days, garden gnomes were painted red, went fishing, and if they had girlfriends, they were a...
Phone Box
Sadly for Superman, the door is screwed shut. This Box is kept as a historical artifact, although it's quite badly rotting and probably won't last another decade. It's a nice touch having it und...
Sleeping Frangipani
The Frangipani sleeps through winter. This one, a well fed and gently aged example, has no shortage of branches on which to grow new foliage in spring. Montville...

There seems to be a rash of small models parked outside various stores of late, last week it was a shark-waiter, this week a fat baker or perhaps a well-endowed baker. I am not sure why, surely t...
Reflecting
An elderly lady waits for her pie, reflecting in the Bakery window. Perhaps ruminating on what life was like before she was confined to her wheelchair, but more probably just wishing she could light ...
Out of Africa
It seems to be rather discordant when in the hills behind the Sunshine Coast, to enter a shop called "Everything African", but that is the reality of the modern world in which we live. There is no lo...

Balloons
I found these balloons hanging at the back of an arcade in Montville, and thought what a cheap and gratuitous way it be if I posted a picture of them to tell the world it's my birthday!Actually I like...
Wall Flowers
Two photos of flowers in three days - what's happening to me?We don't have seasons which are defined by weather extremes, snow, deciduous trees, or flourishes of colour in springtime, so it is rare to...
