Bathing boxes at Aspendale in Melbourne...but then I have been missing from Sydney for a few days too. I took mum on a little 'nostalgia trip' to Melbourne, where she lived her first 40 years.
'Course you don't see trams in Sydney either, but these English-style bathing boxes are far more colourful than trams.
Good journey to you and your mother, she must be happy with you.
ReplyDeleteGreetings to both of you!
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside, but I'd rather be a Sydneysider.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors. They make the perfect subject. Nice stay in Melbourne.
ReplyDeleteI love the light and color - this could be a painting!
ReplyDeleteI like the way you told us about the nostalgia trip. I wish I could have done more of those for my mom. The photo is beautiful and makes me yearn for the beach.
ReplyDeleteHey! You taking over my territory!? NIce shot though Sally, I have posted a close shot previously, but am still planning to show the whole scene. My shots were at Brighton, not Aspendale. Well done. Tomorrow I will post the Opera House!
ReplyDeleteMuj had a marvellous time. I took her to all the old haunts she and dad went to, houses they lived in, and places with memories (dad died a month ago). Also lunch with an old friend from the street we lived in. She had a terrific time. Thanks everyone.
ReplyDeleteMichale - yeah, I'm a cheeky thing!
hey, brighton DP posted a very similar painting ..check it out :)
ReplyDeleteBrilliant photo, I've always wanted to see them. Wonder how you got the title in colour, well done!
ReplyDeleteI read your post in Bill's blog a few days back. I suppose your trip to Melbourne with your mum was of very special significance. All my sympathy to you both.
Yes, I was going to comment on how much this looks like an English beach. Nice colours!
