The City from Quarries Park (Another one for dear friend, Bella G)

It was a beautiful night I spent with my best photography buddy, Margaret, at Clifton Hill's Quarries Park. We even saw thousands of bats flying about... It was cool and so refreshing.

Sitting by the Harbour

I was in Sydney for a weekend getaway with family. On Saturday night I sat by Darling Harbour and took a long exposure shot of the place across the Convention Centre. Beautiful night...

Melbourne City this Friday

Thanks God, It's Friday! I had such a long week...as if there is such a thing as a short week?...the weather was one of the finest, just cool and it felt so fresh....went for a walk around the city with my son, Daniel after school/work. Took him to the street art laneways, and was fascinated with the graffitti, he even had the chance to look at how they are painted.....










then as we walked along Swanston Street we saw the hulahoop man who said that he's from Korea



the city was simply lively with the crowd walking around




we also looked at an amazing painting, being done on the sidewalk of Bourke Street





and while walking on the way back to the train station, there was this group of Korean cultural dancers, they showed a sample of a dance that they were doing at a show which was happening in an hour's time along Albert Street 




then we stopped at the city square along Swanston Street




and rushed to Flinders Station to catch the 6:28 train back home....

Saturday Night - at Fed Square and Southbank

If you look at these photos you may never believe how my day was today, frantic and unpredictable , like the Melbourne weather...I would fill in a whole page if I write about it. The only consolation I had was, of course, going for a little walk in one of my favourite places which I have not actually visited for quite a while, the Southbank... 
This time we took the Metro train after leaving the car at the station from where we came from, and since the place to go for walks is just beside the station, it was the most practical thing to do... We saw a huge christmas tree across the road at Fed Square when we got off Flinders station...so, out of curiosity, we crossed the road, took a couple of photos there before walking down the steps to the Southbank where there was a huge crowd walking by... we saw some people busking, others were either taking photos or just talking or sitting on benches by the river bank.....it was so lively and lovely...for a while, I left my worries behind.
