Graffiti in Lyon
Graffiti in Lyon tends to be a form of tagging. Marks executed with no artistic intent; an expression of defiance and to desire to mark a location. One tagger went a step further than marking a wall, they had tagged a hedge.
Doubt
I underestimated the influence and hold doubt can have over me. Doubt creeps in and lurks unwelcome in the corner of my mind. It waits patiently. Here, time is on doubt’s side.
Fête des lumières
Fête des lumières (festival of lights) is Lyon’s largest annual festival. During the four days of festivities the centre of the city swells with visitors enjoying the light shows and art installations.
Fête des feuilles
We came back from sunny Australia just in time to see the fête des feuilles, festival of leaves, in Lyon’s Parc de la Tête d’Or. It was by chance that we stumbled upon the open air exhibit of autumnal works.
Clouds
Being above the clouds is awe inspiring. Vast distances of soft cloud stretch out in every direction.
Playful Recycling Station
Changi airport is not the most attractive airport but it does have impressive recycling stations. I love the functional and playful design of these three bins.
Photogenic Sydney
Sydney is an undeniably photogenic city. The city is bathed in a strong Australian sun that rewards the point-and-shoot camera. It feels easy to point the camera in almost any direction and end up with a vibrant set of photos.
Christmas Decorations Around Sydney
Decorations started appearing around the city of Sydney in November. As we sped from one event to another around the city, it was difficult to resist stopping and taking the odd photo.
NSW Art Gallery
The gallery’s collection has grown since my last visit. I left uplifted and delighted with the time I spent slowly moving around the exhibit space.
Manly and the Corso
Over the years, I have come to prefer Manly. The approach on the public ferry is stunning and the streets around feel less crowded. It was at Manly that I heard my first public announcement warning swimmers of jelly fish.
