Degraves on a Friday night
Degraves Street runs between Flinders Street and Flinders Lane. As part of my route to work every morning, I get to enjoy the smells of all the coffees brewing as I walk in on a winter morning. The atmosphere changes on a Friday evening as the restaurants open their tables and doors for patrons who [...]
Riding past the public purse
The centrepiece (if you would like to call it that) of Melbourne’s Bourke Street mall is “The Public Purse”, a very large replica of a woman’s purse that sits in front of Melbourne’s GPO on the intersection of Bourke Street and Elizabeth Street.

Modernism amidst classicism
Generally when looking down a pier, one tends to look into the ocean from the shore. Rarely does one ever look from the waters into the shore.

Trams in the rain
Just add water, and the image becomes so different. Melbourne is a city of constantly changing weather which is great for creating interesting weather patterns for taking photographs in.
