ferry shadows...

shadows on the deck of the Queenscliff-Sorrento ferry as it leaves Sorrento...
Strangely, the lifebuoy identifies the names of Geelong and Sorrento.
Geelong is a city on the Bellarine Peninsula directly north of Queenscliff.

curled bark...

Autumn is bark shedding season...
Often small pieces grace my verandah...
This one is lying in rain soaked wood and casts a small shadow when the sun appears...

odd beauty

boat featuring yellow...

rarely have I seen a large boat featuring yellow.
I saw this one crossing Port Phillip Bay when I was on the Queenscliff Sorrento ferry.

a boat's hull


The white boat is another Queenscliff Sorrento ferry crossing the bay.

mat and broom...

I was sweeping leaves from my pathways, and decided to take a break,
perched the broom on the mat and saw the contrast of tones and textures.
Another impromptu photo...

Sulphur-crested cockatoos are a common feature in my Mornington Peninsula world.
They are noisy and destructive but also great fun to watch their crazy antics.

Interesting caption on this scaffolding sign on a property in Dromana.
It seems to suggest that they use new ideas and they treat the danger in their work seriously.

bike riders...

Bike riders are a common sight in my Mornington Peninsula.
Often, large bike riding events are held here.
This photo is of riders participating in the Round the Bay bike round last October.
The scene is the main street of Dromana.
