Peaked

The roof of (what I think is) the new Fisheries department building down at Hillarys.

Wild. Life.

The last few days have been a little crazy. More on that later.

In the meantime, here's an Australian Darter that seemed reasonably happy to model for me by the river in South Perth today.

Mental note: must get a bigger zoom lens for the camera so I can take such photos without lying stretched out on my stomach a few feet from something that can peck out my eyes.

Fenced

Somewhere in the dunes just north of Sorrento beach, Perth.

Click-click

I'd forgotten how much fun it was to take photos using a camera with an actual, real shutter. I have a feeling that I'm grinning like a fool every time I take a photo and hear the click-click.

Update: Thought that photo looked familiar? Flash back to July 2003. I think my photo subjects are looping.

Fun at the Movies

A few weeks back a small gang of us got together to watch Sin City at the movies (it's great, worth checking out on the big screen). We were at the super-mega-plex at Innaloo, where they've got little LED screens above the door of each cinema to tell you what's showing.

Problem is, the screens aren't wide enough for today's overly-descriptive titles. Witness the Sesame Street style genius of:

  • Monster in L
  • War of the W
  • Mrs and Mrs S
  • The Fantastic F

And okay, so that photo is of the Luna Leederville (where they use old-school signs and chalk) and not the super-mega-plex at Innaloo (home of LED truncation hilarity). Why? Because Luna's much cooler.

Monday

That would be another tree over the garage at work.

It's Monday morning. There's a lot to be done.

Busy as a...

The crazy business busy-ness continues at work.

In the meantime, this is the tree that's right behind the garage where I always park my car at work (I say always because I'm almost always the first one there). I had to go climbing in behind the garage over building rubble and an old sink.

Feel free to complete the following phrase: I'm busy as a...
