H.M. Sign in Melbourne Bourke St for Sign2

 


This is the spot to do people photography. The building is a good location at night for floor reflection. But this is where most of murders and killings take place over the years in Melbourne CBD.

Utility Box Sign for Sign 2

 


On the weekend before Joel taking on his trip to Saphire Coast in NSW, he took me to Mensho Ramen Tokyo

This lotus contains 4 smaller symbols that seem to reflect some sort of folklore tales. 

The ramen was delicious but we both waited at the door for 1 hour ahead of the queue.

Pesgrave Place for Sign2

 


Joel had a craving for Uncle Tetsu Souffle in city. So we took a stroll in this alley for snapping something.

Penny Weight Walk Mural in Bendigo for Mural Monday

 


I know this is done by a local artist who is quite well known in Bendigo. I just cannot remember his name any more.

Champaign drink for Treasure Tuesday

 


It was a lovely drink for my birthday that Joel treated me for a good Italian meal in Collingwood.

Infrared State Library Crowd for Sunday Best

 




The camera modification is having a low pass filter removed with the sensor primed for n520 wavelength. 

The result is that it should not be used for landscape lol. It does create a good look for people and candid though (at least to my naked eyes). 

Joel is not a fan of candid photography. So I took my stroll in CBD this week. It is not a reliable tool but it can get some nice tones.

Westpac Bank Sign for Sign2

 



In one of the nights out in CBD, I like how the sign was lit up revealing the pedestrian's face.

Portrait for Mural Monday

 


This wall mural is inside a corridor in a building off Russell Street Melbourne.

I spotted a chap coming out of a Chinese eatery, who bought some take away. He was yelling at all the Asians coming into the store "Get some real food!". That really made my day.

Ishizuka Melbourne Cuisine for Randomosity

 






Expensive meal for Joel's Birthday. We were still hungry afterwards, so we went to a dumpling alley. 

I realised the photos would be buried in my hard drive forever after the occasion. I might as well post them here like a diary.

Old China Town eatery for Treasure Tuesday

 


I was taking a stroll last weekend. After a nice dining for Joel's Birthday. I came across this old building again. In university days, I ate there a lot. The food quality declined badly over the years. The cook added rice powder to all the dumplings before they get fried. Cinnamon is also added to the stuffing. It is just not the same anymore.

Mount Dandenong Tea Room for Treasure Tuesday

 


This is a tearoom that mum and I came to try in a cold winter day. 


The place was ambient until the kids came rushing into the door.

Bendigo Stupa of Universal Compassion for Treasure Tuesday

 


This stupa is so close to my Bendigo home. It is free. It is always quite peaceful to walk in its gardens. The biggest emerald jade Buddha in southern hemisphere is located in this stupa (how many countries are there in southern hemisphere anyway?).

Fitzroy Street Mural, Melbourne for Mural Monday

 


This was sitting next to a carpark. Feels cartoon like.

De Graves Street Signs

 


This was one of my usual candid shots in the area. Somehow the signs do pop a little.

Forest Glade Garden for Treasure Tuesday

 


Well, I do not own this statue. But I tend to visit this private garden opened in Spring and Autumn. The garden is located in Mount Macedon 1 hour drive from Melbourne.


The statue is a little weird that one dude is staring into another dude's private part. Quite a focus on the facial expression too.

Robotcom in Parhan for treasure Tuesday

 


This was taken 1 year ago. This was a nice event where different types of transformers were moving and lighting up above cargoes.

Abandoned Holden Car for Treasure Tuesday

 


After a busy day, I feel so unmotivated to do my daily walk in the park.

For a while, I had an obsession to photograph old, abandoned car. Kind of treasures for Treasure Tuesday
