Year of the Rabbit that's 2011. Return of the mega fauna. Be afraid or be fascinated!
Here, used plastic bottles and bamboo are assembled to breed an organic rabbit destined for recycling. Rebirth. Samsara.  Indian and Chinese fusion.

Sketching 101. All and sundry were invited to try their hand at sketching in Hyde Park Sydney. My three minute effort had a Roman theme.

Merewether Riviera!.....si...but incongruente.
The bike is Italian...fully imported?
My internet 'server'or 'host' is offering heapes more high-speed for the same price, that means out with the slowest connections on record (part of the time), next is getting the computer fully working again. The pleasant woman at the telco-call-centre in Mumbai drew my attention to the offer.  And she could not get to the Commonwealth games.
So near and yet so far, a state of the art internet connection runs through my suburb but is on the way to important institutions.

Summer is 'just around the corner'.  From the shade, away from the UV.  

The grandchildren climb on old kangaroo and play round the garden.  The light post was originally from Newcastle bus depot. A favourite garden gnome was stolen despite it being very heavy to move.
Here I was brought face to face with the seven ages of humanity on hearing from the elderly homeowner how she can no longer do the gardening or even leave the house much, nowdays. Years of gardening experience is held to mull over.  One new rose plant will bloom in about three years time and is waited with anticipation.

The old suburbs are renewed. For instance, in the suburb of Merewether Beach the traditional home, lawn and garden is often replaced by new two story homes often built to the boundary and lined up tall along the streets and the nature of the suburb has change quite a lot, afterall, 1.5 kids need space to live.. and how. 

Photos taken some time ago in Sydney. Computer problems led to old photos coming to light. Anyway, IMAX looks different right now due to construction work.
Only this year have I been to see a show at Imax. Well, the prospects sounded simply glorious: outer space through the eyes of Hubble as well as ultimate surfing in Tahiti, all on the largest screen in the world in 3D. Well, the vision was technically awesome, the content: very average.
Spelling and Macquarie Dictionary. Thanks goodness a big dictionary provides all the inflections. How is it that an adult like me is too lazy to get to know the rules about plurals and so on - is it 'es' or  's' 'ly' 'ely'. Why not use spell check? Simply writing a label on a blog site photo is a minefield!  What about brackets and full stops, the correct dash, direct and indirect speech?  What's worse, I went to school in the days of reading, 'riting and 'rifmatic.

The Arts with the bard in drapes and Queen Victoria is wrapt.
