This photo was taken at Albert Park Lake from an observation tower near the edge of the shore. The lake has concrete walls and the sailors know that they can sail right up to the edge, allowing you to take shots that look as though they are from directly above.

This photo was taken of a tree that had recently been cut down. The gum tree was already sprouting new growth.

Just recently I got given a Sunbeam Snowy and tried out by making one of the ice cream recipes in the manual. The first thing I realised with this when I read the manual is that this product requires a lot of forethought and preperation. The most obvious thing is that the freezer...

Another Friday, another photo. Again a shot from a while back, I hope to get some new shots up soon. After a couple of days of heavy rain these mushrooms had grown out of the top of a wooden post at the entry to Blackburn Lake. I returned the next day but the sun had fried them...

I have noticed in the last couple of months that there are heaps of praying mantis around the place. I don’t know what is attracting them to our yard, but I heard they go after avids that live on our roses. It is always cool to see around the place.

I am hoping to show off a photo each Friday. This photo is of the rear cluster of my road bike, just after I had the rear cluster and chain replaced. The photo was converted from color to black and white using The Gimp.
