7 things I cant do without - Narelle

 my old cat, Luke Skywalker

 a big sky - sunrise, sunset or storms

 coffee...somewhere cool like this cafe that had green bar stools, funky flowers, AND birds all over the walls!

 the promise of a dip in the ocean

 la familia (Pappa and Rhys at the beach)

 magazines

my junk...I know I hoard...the first step is admitting it and asking for help

Architecture...everywhere, by Narelle

I apologise - I had to do a "Jase" and dip into the archives this week. 
A few of my favourite things - 

Walter Burley Griffin designed buildings (Willoughby Incerator Arts Centre)

Art in architecture...Sydney Biennale 2010

early Canberra Architecture, especially industrial...

Skeletal view, from the inside. China Town, Sydney.

the GOOD...Enrico Taglietti, Dickson Library

the BAD...local shopping centres
the UGLY...someones idea of expanding our minds through innovative civic buildings...no thanks...

Vertical Lines - Narelle

 Snails having a vertical race up the shed walls

 Verticals, Capital Hill

 new shoots heading straight for the sky

 late spring prunings in a vertical bunch

 tall branches of pussy willow

 verticals and horizontals in old window frames

vertical statement on the clothesline...love this background - it has that hyper-kodachrome colour of old summer polaroid prints

new theme

hey peeps!

sorry for the delay, and slackness...what a week...
In time for NEXT sunday (another week's time), maybe we could try "FACES" for a theme, and if thats too hard you could try places, or faces in places!....

Any other suggestions for further themes to explore in the future please post.

Ciao
