Week 358
RICHMOND
This week's
images were made in the vicinity of Richmond, an inner eastern suburb of
Melbourne.
From Richmond station I made my meandering way northward until I reached
Victoria Parade, from
where I eventually took a tram to Southern Cross station to get back home. It
was an overcast, coldish
day with rain threatening all the time... luckily there were some bright breaks,
too!

map of the city centre (opens in a new window).

1. Whenever
I see such a stark, almost forbidding, exterior, I wonder what the house
is like
inside..

2. It was a surprise to stumble across this little cottage which would seem more at home in a country village.

3. Gone are
the days when builders went to so much trouble with archways of
modest city terrace houses...

4. Still clinging to glory days? The Prince Patrick is sorely in need of a facelift...

5. A copper door and a fractured photographer!

6. I
spotted this old brick factory with its twin chimneys towering over its
more
modern neighbours... and the light was wonderful!

7. A red door.

8. There's a statement about city society here, isn't there?

9.Waiting to cross...

10. The crooked telephone pole (and the fire hydrant seems to lean in sympathy!).
