A closer look at the side of yesterdays corrugated iron house. Not far from the ‘field of yellow‘ I spotted this house completely covered in corrugated iron. I love all the shapes and colours of the differently aged iron. Near Monegetta, north of Sunbury.

My first ever attempt at some bokeh. Difficult. I like the colours anyway. This was taken at the Royal Melbourne Show which I’ve shown before here.

This is our lovely dog Maggie. I have shown her before here when she was just a puppy, and here, a shot of one ‘wet dog‘. Today ‘Hot dog’. We are currently going through a record breaking heat wave here in Melbourne with several days in the 40′s (degrees Celsius). Yesterdays max was 44.3 degrees C (or roughly 111 degrees fahrenheit). It is going to be something similar today. Maggie decided the best way to keep cool was to sleep with her head on a block of ice I had put out for her. She also, as you can see, took the occassional lick whilst resting!

This three dimensional dome is located down on the river bank close to Crown casino. It displays the Beijing Olympics on a big screen. You can also go inside and send your favourite athlete a hero message.

I’ve shown my dog Maggie before here when she was just a puppy, but now she is six months old. This was taken just after bath time. Maggie is a mini Groodle (Golden Retriever crossed with a miniature poodle).

This seagull found itself ‘in a hole’ when it rested on a cricket pitch in Williamstown recently. It is actually sitting in a spot designed to take the cricket stumps!

Ever wonder how they change the light globes on the Westgate Bridge? Well now you know. They say a change is as good as a holiday, but I don’t think it would be terribly relaxing up one of these cranes!

Our new lovely mini groodle, Maggie. She is a mini poodle crossed with a golden retriever. She makes for a wonderful companion for our Schnoodle (schnauzer cross poodle) Molly, and retriever cross Billy. Here, she is just 8 weeks old.

Not you standard job! ……….. Replacing the advertising signs above the Western Highway in Deer Park yesterday afternoon.
PS : Did anyone notice something peculiar about this photo? The guy on the left is not real. I assume it is going to be an advertisement for workplace safety… !
