Red Nook

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ In the Dromana Hub Shopping Centre carpark, Mornington Peninsula, I found Jim's Mobile Dog Wash red van right near a red car.
And in the background, you can just see the red of the entrance to the shopping centre.
I could not believe my good luck!

Odd Mailbox Ramp

And the wooden door to the ramp is embedded with a mailbox.

Hidden Agenda of Smoke

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Hastings on Westernport Bay, Mornington Peninsula
In the background (click to enlarge) you can see the shapes of refineries and a hint of flame and smoke.
It could be a picturesque marina...

Where there's scents of smoke
Curling wisps of glowing flame
Fire burns secretly

Where cloud is grey white
Still grey white on sunny days
Smoke leers knowingly

My World by the Bay

Lilac and White Swirls on the Vine

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ These tiny flowers are just beginning to open at the beginnning of Autumn on the Mornington Peninsula.
They open in swirls and seem to grow in tiered clusters on my archway vine.
I have no idea what they are.

Shadow Grids

Note: I am actually taking the photo through glass on one side, looking inside and out through the other side of glass.
That is why there is an odd reflection, top right on the roof.

Hands and Feet in Harmony

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Just a week ago, I held this Harmony Day badge in my hand.
But that was a week ago.
It is one thing to hold a Harmony Day badge in the hand, but it is quite another to put the hands into harmony inspired action.
It is one thing to talk the talk, but quite another to walk the walk.

Dusky Autumn Flowers

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Unusual flowers in the lovely Sorrento reserve overlooking Port Phillip Bay, Mornington Peninsula
P.S. This flower may be one I have never seen before on the east coast of Australia, but apparently it is called sedum and is quite common in Canada.
In October, it flowers in Finland.
