Brunswick, Melbourne.
It was an urban exploration that has allowed us to find more graffiti.

This jetty sits in a town less than 300 in total. 30-minute drive from Melbourne. Not far at all.
This jetty sunset is very easy to shoot, and reflection of the jetty is a guarantee if no rain.

This is Van Gough style mural art in the same lane that I used to come for graffiti documentation.
In the window reflection, there is my buddy and myself. We knew each other for 32 years now.

This was taken on an overcast day. No good sunset to use but the water reflection creates a lovely pattern.

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.

Gloomy and dark. The mini waterfall is a bonus for the dull sunset. There is reflection in the water hole too.

Joel called being too sick to be with me outing to NaiDoc Week in city. I ended up staying at home trying out all the croissant varieties bought around East Melbourne.
I always wanted to do this shot with a puddle reflection, but I never got around to it. however, mission half accomplished when I drove through the Sorrento on the weekend.
Glad that I stopped nearby and took this shot.

The rain will be pouring for the next consecutive 10 days all over Australia. I was splashed by the rain last evening too. Well, I did not know there was a light up event near the tulip bloom!

I shot it handheld. No tripod. Done wide open too. Funny to do this like a lazy crook.
Mount Fuji, Japan’s tallest peak, has long been an iconic symbol of the nation, admired for its symmetrical beauty and serene presence. Located near the town of Kawaguchiko, one of the Fuji Five Lakes, this majestic mountain draws travelers from around the world who come to witness its splendor firsthand. The experience of seeing Mount Fuji from Kawaguchiko is nothing short of breathtaking, as the mountain’s towering form emerges from the surrounding landscape in a quiet yet powerful display of natural grandeur.
Kawaguchiko, situated at the foot of Mount Fuji, offers a unique vantage point for viewing this natural wonder. The town itself, known for its scenic beauty, peaceful atmosphere, and picturesque lakeside setting, provides the perfect backdrop for appreciating the mountain’s magnificence. As the sun rises or sets, the interplay of light on the snow-capped peak creates an ever-changing view, capturing the essence of Mount Fuji’s allure. The reflection of the mountain on the calm surface of Lake Kawaguchi is a sight that captivates and inspires, especially during the early morning when the mist and the stillness of the water combine to create an almost dreamlike scene.
One of the most striking features of Mount Fuji from this vantage point is its symmetrical shape. The near-perfect cone of the mountain, with its gentle slopes and wide base, has earned it a place in art, literature, and folklore for centuries. It is a natural masterpiece that evokes both a sense of reverence and awe. The mountain’s snow-covered summit, visible year-round, serves as a reminder of Japan’s changing seasons, while the lush greenery that surrounds it in the warmer months contrasts beautifully with the white peaks above.
The cultural significance of Mount Fuji only deepens the experience of seeing it. Revered in Shintoism and Japanese folklore, the mountain has long been considered sacred. Pilgrims have ascended its slopes for centuries, and it has inspired countless works of art and poetry. Its presence in the landscape is more than just a natural feature; it is a symbol of purity, strength, and perseverance. Visitors to Kawaguchiko can’t help but feel a sense of connection to the mountain’s spiritual and historical importance as they gaze upon it.

I forgot it was a public holiday for school kids. So every touristy location is packed by humans. Full stop. I can only photography humans instead.

This secluded part of Stingray Bay lies sheltered from the main expanse. The tide is steadily rising. I wandered through the shallows with bare feet, seeking a reflection, yet found none.
