Belmore Park and Central Railway Station, winter

  1. Very attractive grounds, Sally. Doesn't strike me as winter, tho; looks more like fall.

  2. I can assure you it's mid-winter!

  3. Certainly today hit the depths of winter for any true-blue Aussie. Very hard to tolerate.

    This is a grand part of town to wander with a camera, Sally. There are so many characters in that park - just don't do it at night!

  4. That photo makes it look a lot more elegant than I remember it. Was commonly known as "derro" park by those of us who worked nearby.

  5. It actually looks very beautiful to me. It's not a place I'd normally frequent, so haven't seen it looking like this before. Aren't those trees magnificent!

  6. Belmore Park is very attractive these days, and while some of the meths-drinking boys might be stretched out in the sun, it's actually not too bad during the day. It had a makeover for the Olymoics, is the sight of a fair few community functions (eg Chinese New Year), demo rallying point and of course walkway to the station for all the workers. I've also seen lunchtime touch footy games there.
