Various shots of the Auction Rooms Cafe in North Melbourne. (103-107 Errol Street). These shots were all taken by my daughter.

The fantastically interesting Chapel Street Bazaar. I remember it from when it was around the corner in Greville Street. Great collectibles, nic-nacs, jewellery, antique furniture and much much more. This photo came third in the ‘What I love about Stonnington’ competition. It has been printed on postcards and distributed around the city. HDR

Adam Elliot created the character of Havey Krumpet and in 2003 won an oscar for the short movie which he directed, wrote and animated. The movie is narrated by Geoffrey Rush (Captain Barbosa from “Pirates of the Caribbean”). In fine form, Adam has left Harvie together with Oscar for all to see in the foyer of ACMI (Australian Centre for the moving image). I have shown the cafe from ACMI before here. ACMI is located at the back of Federation Square.
