Art Deco Roof


This used to be the old Art Deco Broadway theatre - c.1928 - at Rosebud.
Now it houses a real estate business on the main street and Vintage Bazaar behind with a main street cafe link.


Outside, all that is left is the unusual roof line



old theatre worlds
cannot sell the homes
of memories

Yellow Sign and Reflection


I like how the yellow boats in reflection seem to add a yellow dimension to the yellow sign.
The photo was taken at a Portsea shoe shop.


reflections
melt reality into 
strange mirages

Petrol Pumps


Old and new petrol pumps live uneasily side by side in this rather isolated country area at Main Ridge


isolated
a cute kind of loneliness
brushed with enchantment

Waiting for summer crowds...


For most schools in Victoria, the summer holidays begin next week.
Dromana beach is waiting.

parade silky sands by
cool summer waters

Bloom Room


Christmas display in a flower shop at Mornington
(Google Awesome automatically added the falling snow when I uploaded this photo to Picasa Web Albums.
I was surprised. But there's no snow in my world.)
The Bloom Room at Mornington is more than a florist.
It combines flowers and gifts and photography - weddings a specialty.


white enchantment
touching the Christmas spirit
with innocent joy

even when it's raining...


Even when it's raining,
even when the camera sneaks a shot through a rain sodden windscreen,
anything yellow seems to glow.
This photo was taken at Red Hill.


even on grey days
filtered with grey rains
somewhere is gold

Rainbow for the Christmas Season


When a rainbow emerges, somehow the days of cold rain
(when it should be summer warmth)
don't seem to matter.


streaming bow of light
a ribbon unfurled
