Week 89
L - Hipster Crochet Bike - This was just some of the randomness that Melbourne is famous for. I was in the city over the weekend and we saw this random crochet covered bike in locked up against a lamp post. Not too sure what it was all about but they were doing a 12hr 'Knit In' in Federation Square so I can only presume it had something to do with that. Nonetheless super fun!

Week 88
L - Blast from the past -I went to a vintage market on the weekend and picked up some odds and ends. I have a collection of wooden rulers on the wall and these are more for the collection. Some vintage sizing tape from France, and some other stuff.
R - SoftboxPro iPad app - My attempt at something a little bit Art Class. I found this awesome iPad softbox/lightbox app that allows you to choose from various patterns/shapes to illuminate objects. I though this glass mug would be a good subject to highlight the lightbox part of my photo and not the object. I enjoy the simplicity of the lightbox with no pattern, but had trouble choosing between this one and another with the overhead light casting some orange into the shot.

Week 87
L - Life on the other side - My cat Missy does not get out onto the street and has to stay behind the gate in our garden (1 part me being a worried owner and 1 part being the law in my area). She often stares out the the gate dreaming of the other side. So I had the idea of showing her staring out and what is on the other side.
R - Blacklight - As part of the Memorial Day Weekend Drink Fest we went to The Bushwich Country Club to sample their tasty pickle back and some cheesypoofs that they have on the bar! yum! Anyhoo, the bathroom has a black light so all the graffiti glows. I enjoy the "+ other parts"

Week 86
L - By Candle Light - Average week for me. Winter is here with both it's damp yuk weather and its usual colds and flu! I have succumbed to a cold and have done nothing much more than stay warm indoors. So this is just a cozy photo from the week. Simple.
R - Graffitilicious - You can imagine my delight when I stumbled across this huge graffiti wall on East Houston at Bowery! I took this from the middle of the street with a wide focal length so you can see a little curvature in the street which is fun. I thought the wall was more interesting with the people in the foreground to show some scale.

Week 85
L - Evil Flower - This is a phone photo but I had to use it. Its a malformed Gerbera flower...with a mutation where one stem has tried to form two heads (they are a single headed flower). It looks Eeeeeviilllll! I thought this was brilliant.
R - A Night at the Theater - We went to our lovely friend Regina's wedding which was very Hollywood Glam and set in a theater. She's an actor, he works in theater so it was very appropriate. I didn't have my SLR, just a wee point and shoot but I got this shot of the photo booth that their photographer had set up. It was so much fun, everyone just grabbed the remote and some props (hats, boxing gloves, whiteboard/pens) and got creative. I soooooo need to have one of these when I get married, such a great idea. I struggled to choose between this photo and another where you can see the smear of the flying bouquet. Fun fun fun evening at the theater!

Week 84
L - Forever Temporary - The ever changing Hosier Lane in Melbourne is one of my favourite places to go. Something new every time you visit from something small to larger works like this one. Brilliant. Sadly, unlike the what it says it won't be forever and will most likely have developed into something completely different the next time I visit. Love it.
R - Helicopters - First it was the tree pollen, then all the cherry blossoms and now these wee helicopter seeds. I love the way all of the tree related things have fallen and been caught by the uneven pavement sections. The cherry blossom was great and I missed it, but managed to catch this vibrant green.

Week 83
L - Abstract Glow - I got up early last Saturday and while sitting eating breakfast I saw the wonderful pattern the sun was making as it pushed through the blinds. The colour also just happened all by itself. I like the abstract Bokeh look.....
R - New Hiding Spot - Excuses excuses this week...too many things on not enough hours in the day for editing photos. The other morning little D was sad we were getting ready to go out and he hid behind the curtain in our room with his sad pouty face on :( so dramatic!
