Carlton Gardens, Melbourne
My ultra small camera doesn't have many shooting options, but I tried this one which was for scenes under fluorescent lighting. I quite like the softening and yellowing that gives the shot an old worlde charm.
Drinking fountain with the water fountain beyond. I had to take this and the next shot quickly, as two small school children were walking up to take a drink. They gave me odd looks.
This is a bark etching that I've never noticed before... there are many things I've never noticed before until I started going out for walks and taking my camera with me. I have Em to thank for opening my eyes to a whole new world beyond my feet and eye level.
I photographed it as it appears, vertically, but when I spun it around it looks exactly like a gun trigger. I googled the park and tree carvings, because this looks like more than just someone's knife graffiti, but couldn't find anything about it.
Apparently I have a thing for refuse, especially beer related refuse. Hmmm....

I love the first picture of the bench, the angles and the soft color gently lead your eyes to the center. I've never tried the indoor setting outside--so much for thinking outside the box!! I'm still working on figuring out which setting is best for dog-play.
I also find the etching very interesting, it does look like a partial gun. I wonder what it means. So many possibilities!! My angsty little brain tells me it was a guy, and maybe a territorial gang sign. *shrug* Who knows.
These are all great examples of viewing the everyday things in a different way. Great job!
