365 Project 2013 Day 042

“We now know a thousand ways not to build a light bulb”
Thomas Alva Edison

Day 237...

The Caledonian Hotel, corner of Barton Terrace and O'Connell Street, North Adelaide

Day 236... Day's end

Yesterday my holiday came to an end and today I headed back to work...

it had been a long day and I did not pick up my camera all day but as I walked to my car I turned and saw the last of a gorgeous sunset

Day 207...

"If what I say resonates with you, it is merely because we are both branches on the same tree."
- W.. B . Yeats

One of the things I love about the 365 project is the community and getting to know people that have a passion for photography as I do... people that are different branches on the same tree called photography.   

Day 189... Flinders and Swanston Street

Flinders Street Station, apart from being the hub of Melbourne's transport system, is one of the city's great landmarks and icons. Opened in 1884, the station dominates the intersection of Flinders and Swanston Streets. The steps under the station's famous domed clock tower has long been the most popular meeting place for Melbourneans coming into the city.

St Paul's Cathedral, Melbourne, is the metropolitical and cathedral church of the Anglican Diocese of Melbourne, Victoria in Australia. It is the seat of the Anglican Archbishop of Melbourne and Metropolitan of the Province of Victoria. The cathedral, which was built in stages, is a major Melbourne landmark

Day 152... light on

I know, I swear

If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me

I'll come there

You can leave a light on for me

Duran Duran - Leave a Light on

I was walking back to my car after another day at work when I saw this beautiful verandah lit up, I love the silhouette that was formed and the beautiful pattern.

Day 150...

150 days of taking at least a photo a day...

I didn't think I would last 50 days but I have.

A dear friend gave me the wonderful idea of shooting a building that is a 150 years old to celebrate 150 days.... so here is the North Adelaide Congregational Church.

Day 140... above the clouds

The air up there in the clouds is very pure and fine, bracing and delicious. And why shouldn't it be? - it is the same the angels breathe. ~Mark Twain, "Roughing It"

There is something special about being above the clouds... the light is different and looking down seeing the light on top of the clouds is wonderful.

I love the colour and light of this cloud with the darkness of the ground below.

Day 135...

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within. ~Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Day 88... Photography has increased my awareness

The title is a quote from Andreas Carl and it is something that I find everyday thanks to my 365 project...

and so when I saw this comment written on a building I smiled

Plenty of "art work" everywhere to see on Brunswick Street

these bees and "meat-eating" plant above a florist

It must be getting close to Easter, for my friends in Oz who want a chance to win go to http://www.goldbunny.com.au/

Naked for Satan is a Basque-style pintxos bar which opened up late last year in Brunswick Street; cool place for drinks and tapas...

How things have changed...

The beauty of the buildings of Melbourne

Day 78... Delicate

“I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.”

Og Mandino (American Essayist and Psychologist, 1923-1996)

Tonight is what is being called the Supermoon... a full moon at it closest to Earth, I will hopefully go out in to the darkness and take a shot but this light is my photo of the day...

Day 63... Light and shadow

Day 60... light as...

Light as a feather....

as I wandered around the garden today looking for something that was not red to take a photo of I noticed this tiny feather.

I tried to take the photo outside but the wind was just making that difficult so inside we came
