curling and swirling

Maison Blanche

This is a side of a home - on a corner block -  at Moorabbin, an inner suburb of Melbourne.
I loved the play of dark shadow shapes on the white.
And the name of the place translates as White Home.

Naked Japan?

A sign at Moorabbin, an inner suburb of Melbourne.
I have not wandered Moorabbin before, so I was shocked to see this sign.
When I checked the menu displayed on the window, it seemed that a wide range of Japanese foods were offered at very cheap prices.
Perhaps that's the connection with the words in the sign - barest cost?

Unknown Autumn Flower

I have no idea what this Autumn flower may be.
All I know is I rather like it, in spite of the little bugs that seem to be busy wandering the petals!
This flower was photographed in a garden at Moorabbin, an inner suburb of Melbourne.

Shadow trialling the new deck/verandah.
Going by how long she sprawled there, I think it meets her paw of approval!

Alien

At the last March Kite Festival on the Rosebud foreshore, many local businesses took the opportunity to advertise and to dress up in line with their business.
This one, Aliens, had a few people wandering around in lime green + antennas.
But I loved this sign with its comments on love and pain.

Water Dance

This photo is of the coastline round Mushroom Reef beach at Flinders.
It is rugged.
And the water seems to enjoy playing and dancing round over the rocks.

Colours in the Shallows

Amazing what colours can be found in shallow water near a beach.
This is a view of water near Mushroom Reef beach at Flinders on the southern end of the Mornington Peninsula.

Scaffold Sign

This Safe High-TS sign was spotted on a car parked at Rosebud.
Not sure about this one!
I know the business name is a play on "heights", but also a play on "high 5's"???
And how would you say this name?
