I find all components of the gum tree fascinating. I recently discovered the beauty of their flowers.

Bubble gum
The berries on this tree remind me of bubble gum
Storm clouds
I love the inkiness of this threatening sky
Moment of stillness
Two buses go past as I wait for the green man to appear.
There are two people loitering near the stop. There’s no sign of the express service in the crawling metal convoy before me. I decide to take the train.
I walk briskly towards the railway station. There is usually an ant like line of pedestrians along this route, not today.
I notice the purple green leaves of a ginger in bloom.
As I near my destination I see yellow and silver carriages setting off to the city.
I smile to myself, at least I have captured a moment of morning stillness.
Being present
A moment forward
Hasn’t happened yet
A moment backwards
May as well forget
Light advances
Darkness recedes
Takes life’s chances
He who succeeds
Living in the now
Releases my strife
Being strong somehow
By accepting life

This picture started as a photograph of the moon with lunar lens flare. I added filters, duplicated and scaled layers in Art Studio for iPad.
I look forward to your comments.
Autumn comes to Sydney
When driving to work we pass this park in St. Peter’s, a suburb about 6km from Sydney CBD.
Yellow Pages
I don’t remember many tv commercials, not a good candidate for being marketed to!
I find this old Yellow Pages commercial amusing.
Sliver of silver
Brightly seen.
Not in sight.
Glimmering,
Then sliver
Of silver
Shining light.

Blue sky moment
Brief conversation over breakfast this morning while my partner was watching a video clip of Packer fighting on the weekend. The exchange went like this:
“Oh it was the Packer son who was fighting. ”
“Yes James Packer, the father’s dead. ”
“He’s looking old!”
