a photo blog about everyday life
I’m sitting in my hotel room on a rainy Saturday morning in Brisbane the day after Cyclone Marcia made her mark on the city and surrounding areas. I’m working up my motivation to go out and explore in spite of the soggy mess. In the mean time, here are some blanck-and-white Instagrams from Bendigo, where I spent the weekend and 3 work days this week.
I arrived in Bendigo Saturday afternoon to discover that this old gold rush boomtown is every bit as lovely as I’d been told.
Saying goodbye to Launceston is sad, but I’m looking forward to a week in Victoria (Bendigo & Ballarat via Melbourne).
It’s Sunday morning in Launceston, Tasmania and I’m off to photograph Cataract Gorge again today. I arrived Friday afternoon with the weekend to enjoy the sites before work begins on Monday. I’m in Tassie for one week and then the adventure continues in Victoria, Queensland & New South Wales. I sure do miss the Buffalo snow. (Wink).
One of the most enjoyable stops during our time in Old San Juan was an old-timey shop called Olé which sells hand-made Panama hats fitted and accessorized to your specifications right their in the shop. Pictured below is the owner fitting Allen’s choice, a Montecrisi, one of the finest Panama hats you can buy. Also pictured, Allen Modeling another hat, and a tourist who kindly let me photograph her as she chose a hat of her own.
