Hosier Lane, Melbourne for Mural Monday

 

It has become a considerable challenge to discover commendable murals upon Hosier Lane in Melbourne. Numerous vagrant individuals now inhabit the byways. The murals I encountered were swiftly besmirched by graffiti within a mere week. I frequently observed tours proceeding along Hosier Lane, yet the countenances of the participants often bore expressions of fatigue and disinterest.

The only message I could get is to stop war something like that.

Finally getting my 21 fans solar panels installed on my roof. Hopefully that will reduce my bills in winter for more generous use of central heating. 

Merry Xmas decoration in Town Hall and Hosier Lane Mural for Mural Monday

 

Every year, this looks same. I really want to go to Yarra River for the river lights installation, but I am scared to mix in the crazy crowd on Xmas Eve.

Joel and I headed out to a lovely beach near Tenby Point. He told me about a new gimbal camera that is coming onto the market by DJ mini. It would be a universal mount camera with a very low register distance. So it can take any lenses from any major brands. How exciting!

I remembered there were times that the academic circle treated foxes as local pests. Eradication was encouraged.

On the weekend, Joel and I supposed to head to this Singapore Chili Crab restaurant. Then he had to go see an optometrist for a reading glasses. Then we ended up heading to Nylex Signs and Skipping Girl signage which did not light up at all. We went to Che the Vietnamese desert place and had best three colour ice there.

I was going through an old uni album where Leonid and I were like inseparable twins. He is now the head of a bone marrow transplant department in US. Memory can be so much like old wine though I cannot drink alcohol because of gout.

Hosier Lane again, Melbourne. This is from archive. The good old day

My brother tells me that he feels like he works so hard, but the bank account balance is not going up. Yet, he lives a frugal life. I somehow feel similar.

Gonna get back to working mode again.

This was taken from a few years ago. The mural in the past looks better than what is available on offer. 

Really excited to get my hands on Sony A7RV by this weekend. More sunset and long exposure at the coast lol

I notice the quality of murals on Hosier Lane becoming worse by the day.

Shoes hung up high in laneway, Melbourne CBD

 

I love shallow depth of field at one stage. It was what a lens geek would do. I have tons of shots on the shoes hung up in the laneway of Melbourne. I never quite understood why this was done first place.

My pals tell me it was a way to mark the sales point for weeds. Or it was a mysterious way to play a game.
