A day at the beach..

Another delightful mural by Perth contemporary artist Peter Ryan. You might remember that I now enjoy his work on my beach walks here. The new mural is adorning a wall in my local shopping centre Westfield Whitfords. Painted during the last school holidays the artist, working with ideas from children in the local community created a 'sea-riously' wide and wonderful beach scene. Love all the gorgeously whimsical details below but the rather rotund sunbathers made me smile big 😊 Happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe..

Borealis blue..

  The July theme day colour for City Daily Photo bloggers is blue. We were in the city last night to catch the last showing of Borealis created by Swiss artist Dan Archer. Perth provided the clouds :) laser beams magicked the borealis lights over the sky in Forrest Place, the drizzling rain adding to the otherworldly experience. Just one of the many events in the city during Perth Winter Fest. It's not always that easy to capture the feel of an event like this in photos, you might like to see it on video by Skyperth here. Happy beginning of the new month, take care and stay safe..

The Bazaar..

Even in a shop that sells unique and sometimes bizarre, see below :) objects, Aimee is often the most exotic presence.. especially when wearing a cosmic galaxy sweater as she was yesterday 😉 Seriously, Bazaar Clothing at Hillarys Boat Harbour has some amazing clothes, bohemian style their specialty. I do like a bit of bohemian in my wardrobe :) Hope you are having a super weekend whether it be keeping cool or snuggling up, happy Sunday, take care and stay safe..

CoeXist..

If only we all could how lovely the world would be 💙 Couldn't resist a quick shot of the car above advocating all the right things for a happy life, peace, love and .. that illusive rainbow of colours that  I have been searching for in the skies this past week :) Also the perfect segue into wishing you a happy and peaceful weekend, take care and stay safe..

Chasing rainbows..

... and finding flower petals 🌸 Another day chasing that new winter header shot without luck but a trip to the city is never a waste of time, there's always something to see. Lunch in ENEX provided me not only with scrumpdiddlyumshious food, I know right :) but also a chance to experience the mechatronic flowers adorning the ceiling of the upstairs eatery. 'The brainchild of the Skunk Control team at Victoria University, the display consists of large mechatronic flower heads which open and close to display a vibrant internal ecosystem surrounded by colourful and delicate petals. Each flower features millions of vivid colours, influenced by our native flora and fauna'. Gorgeous aren't they, not a wasted trip at all. Happy Friday, take care and stay safe.. P.s. big catch up today 💛

A walk in the park encore..

Yesterday morning after visiting my sister in hospital, a stone's throw from Kings Park, we stopped by for a walk amidst the calming greenery and familiar views.. thought you might like to come along with me :) The storm that was forecast was building but only came in later in the day. Hoping to get some wintry shots tomorrow. Have been reading about the extreme temperatures in the northern hemisphere, it really is astonishing that there are still so many climate change disbelievers, what will it take I wonder! Happy Thursday, keep cool, take care and stay safe...  P.s. All pics taken with one lens, the new 12-200, so good not having to change lens all the time.

Ten doors down..

Walking along St Georges Terrace last week I had the thought that perhaps you might like to see some of the many beautiful doors, both old and new, along the terrace. The thought only occurred to me when we were half way down the terrace so there may be one or two sequel door posts :) Obviously my favourite are the doors with Art Deco details like above and below.. which do you prefer old.. or super modern as in pics number three and five below. We are in for more storms today, this might be the day I catch my new winter header shot! Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe..
