Hockey day

Thanks for the photos, Jo.

Some lovely photos - thanks Jo

Seeing Susan

I saw Susan tonight, a good friend of mine from camera club, whose been in the wars of late. We had fun playing with some of her photos from trips to different parts of the world. One of the things we did was to create this tri-triptych of the Customs House at Vivid Sydney.  We were quite chuffed with it.

"Yes, Ken, I know it'll need some work, but it's such a lovely colour," said Barbie defensively about her new purchase

These photos were taken at the abandoned Dunlop Factory.

The family on holiday in Durban

Thanks for the great photos, Jo.  It looks like everyone had a relaxing and fun time...

Abandoned Dunlop Factory (Alexandria, Sydney)

Similar to the Glebe Tram Sheds, this is a derelict, old factory that has stood vacant for many years and has been reclaimed by nature (I never knew weeds could grow so thick) and graffiti artists. It's a great place to potter and appreciate the graffiti art but I wouldn't like to come here at night.

Introducing the all new Renault wreckage...

The highlight for me was this old car, a Renault that has seen better days, painted in shocking pink.  What a beaut she is.

Graffiti Art

Like the Glebe Tram shed, the graffiti was absolutely beautiful.  It will be a pity when they inevitably knock all these old places down.

Location of Dunlop Factory  

Near corner of  Euston & Bowden Streets, Alexandria (see map).  Apparently, the gates are not always open, so then you'll need to go round the back.
