Watching
It's been another warm day here so after dinner we went for a quick walk along a road (now closed to traffic) above St Kilda Beach, the light was dramatic with dark skies and occasional sunbeams breaking through the cloud layers . At the end of the road, is wonderful...
Valras from the sea
This is a view of my local resort of Valras. I don't go too often as its normally crowded with vacationers from up north, but winter offers off-season opportunities of sleepy dereliction! This image is taken from above the sea, on a rock Jetty. Its a kind of view...

Memories…
I've been offline for the last few days while my computer was upgraded. The upgrade (basically a new computer) was done by my son and it didn't go as smoothly as expected -the two hours he quoted me turned into almost two days. The house has never looked tidier!! Now...
white barn II
Goodness, how time flies on the net! Last week we received an email asking for fuller recipes of our early images from way back, at the time of last summer's launch. It came as a surprise to me as I couldn't remember our early blogs being so minimal! Thus, to rectify...
