Still recovering from the Melbourne Open House weekend. And here's the really nice part of yesterday... little Sophia was kind enough to accompany us through our journey to the South precinct... and of course we have to thank her parents James and Sasha bring her along. More tomorrow.

Today was the second day of Melbourne Open house 2013. Didn't cover as much, but I had to contend with sore legs from all the walking the previous day. This time we did mostly the South Regions and ended off with a spectacular lunch at Taxi!

Anyway, here's one of Hamer Hall, with the stage all decked out for the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. More tomorrow.

At the Liverpool v Melbourne Victory game today. I was seating in a sea of over 95,000 and here is one wave. More tomorrow.

PS. Taking this picture and going to the game, goes against every fibre of my being... I am a Liverpool Antifan!

Took this background a while back, a great looking metal door with an angular arch, but didn't know what to do with it.

Anyway, while going through my archives, I found this shot of Brooke and decided to do a composite image. So here you go. More tomorrow.

A bit of a weird day today... first it was one the hottest winter days ever. Then the clouds rolled in and it was storming. And just as quickly as it came, the storm left, and the sun came out, just to set and show off this beautiful sky. More tomorrow.

Out tonight and took this shot of the World Trade Centre, or rather South Wharf. The still water was perfect for an almost mirror-like reflection of the lights. I thought it was pretty cool. More tomorrow.

Deep in the bowels of a carpark in Melbourne (OK, maybe not so deep, this is in basement 2), sits a Ferrari Dino, that as far as I can tell has not moved from it's spot for a good few years.

I've probably used the wrong lens, shot from a very bad angle, truth be told, I don't really like anything about this shot technically, other than the fact that it's a Ferrari Dino! More tomorrow.

On the Gold Coast, you don't need to go to movie World to see someone famous, you jut need to step out of the hotel.

Here's not one, but two Elvises on the boardwalk this morning. More tomorrow.
