AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Vertical Window Parade


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ On a school excursion to Melbourne Museum, I took this photo of a nearby stylish building! I loved how the windows seemed staggered in cameo patterns.
And yes! One of my students just had to be a part of the act!
Even if it just meant that his arm and hand snatched the spotlight!

Window Views...and Doors Too

Modern sense of style
Tall and bold and beautiful
Windows on the rise

I like the way he's holding up the paper, as though he's demonstrating the scale of the building

It's almost like the building had several arhitects so they put all the ideas together into one building. :)
