Sure, I'll attempt to do so in the near future.

The Leonard Cohen moment

Repeating, identical windows of an old apartment block rise up into the sky, with a small strip of bright blue sky above. A small moon is over on the top left, and the edge of a tree in the right corner. Down below, the wire from a tram line stretches across the scene, with a single white bird (a Corella) sitting on it.

A friend recently mentioned they track my mental health through the frequency of my IG posts, which feels like a reasonable barometer. I’m here, but struggling - random pain and an unquiet mind makes it so - but I’ll get to the rest of the trip photos soon. As Lord Huron asks, “where do you go when it’s all in your head?”

An old orange vinyl swivel chair sits in some dirt next to a car park. The vinyl on the seat part is ripped in half, and some shadows cross the top of the chair. Behind, a blue sky, a parked car and some trees.

A diagonal shadow falls across an old building’s cream-coloured and uneven wall, across a single window frame containing 8 panes. A blue sky is above, as is a single wire.

The shadow of a restaurant’s sign falls diagonally across its awning. The whole building is dark red, with the name “Nam Loong” in yellow. Beyond, a bluish sky and some newer buildings.

quiet dreaming.

A shadow of a T-shaped light pole falls across the black wall of a building, which has some pink, black, white and green bits just above it. A tree and some sky is visible in the background over on the left.

@philip@aus.social yep, very true - a new pathway was already fenced off!

Beware the raw horror of the #Obelisk. Seen near #Robe in #SouthAustralia last week.

#RoadTrip #Danger #KeepOut #Beware #signs #fences #clouds

An alternating white and red obelisk sits beyond a fence with signs saying “KEEP OUT”, “OBELISK”, and a yellow sign warning of a falling danger. A cloudy sky is beyond. How many victims has it lured, we wonder?

First floor #autumn views from Captains of Industry. I know everyone loves the place just up the street, but it’s always super busy - crowds aren’t my scene. This place is more relaxed _and_ has a lovely view, so I’ve been coming here for well over a decade. Its constancy makes it a relative ocean of #calm, untroubled by the comings and goings of the outside world.

#coffee #Melbourne #Saturday #walks #VSCOcam

A red cup of coffee sits on a red saucer with a spoon, on a ledge just inside of a window. Outside, autumn leaves are scattered across an awning just below the window; beyond is a tree, and some buildings. It’s a bit cold and wet.

@DifferentDrummer@syzito.xyz thank you!

@bezt@bsd.network thank you!

The lovely home of a local radio station, encountered purely by chance in Broken Hill earlier this week.

#RoadTrip #BrokenHill #Radio #Buildings #Hipstamatic

A brick building with a curved roof, designed to look like an old mid-century radio set. Under the four round windows (two on either side of the central door) are signs “on-off”, “tone”, “tuning” and “volume”. In the middle up top is a panel that shows some radio station codes. It’s a clear blue sky above.

Quo vadis?

odd things spotted at a still-empty market early on a Sunday morning.

#OldCars #Bonneville #morning #walks #wandering #Hipstamatic

The front view from the left-hand front corner of an old two-door and very long car, parked next to a pavement - the car is called a “Bonneville”. Two headlights in a vertical configuration on each side, and a slightly pointy nose in the middle. It’s a lovely dark red, and a clear early morning sky is behind, with a couple of trees and a distant building.

I rented a Ford Mustang for my wife for her birthday; we hit the road out of town, and the look on her face as she accelerated into the freeway was priceless.

A woman stands in the middle of the frame, turning towards us and looking towards the rear of a car that’s to the left of the frame, with the right-hand tail lights in the middle of the bottom of the frame. Some trees are in the background, and it feels a bit dusty.

A wall of an old building with a black and white painting of a 19th century man with a large beard, but it’s split up into separate, differently-sized sections, all framed.

sorrow.

A statue of a sad-looking shrouded figure, in front of a curved window that shows the reflection of some clouds.

a man in a hat holding a maraca, singing into a microphone as he looks upwards towards us. Behind him is a red curtain with some small yellow lights.

@Lushr@pixelfed.au here’s another time: https://flic.kr/p/JgfJWm

@Lushr@pixelfed.au nah, this is further up near Johnston St, outside Plug Seven records. I’ve seen it parked there plenty of times over the last decade.
