Windows seen through a train window approaching Milsons Point station

From my archives, when I worked at North Sydney

#windowsOnwednesday #wednesdaywindows #windowswednesday #photography #reflection

Tall buildings on either side of the frame, with sun, clouds and smaller buildings in the middle. The sun is low in the sky, close to sunset during November in daylight saving. The clouds are starting to colour yellow and bruised purple and are reflecting on the building on the left. The building on the right is seen more in silhouette, and some lights are visible on one of the floors.

More bottlebrush for #ColorADay #RedWed

#photography #flowers #bloomscrolling

Two red bottlebrush flowers and leaves, growing on the trunk of a tree. The trunk of the tree is blurred in the background, filling the frame.

Pink and bruised purple clouds, from the balcony during an evening shift

From my archives

Looking west, not long after sunset, over a silhouette of a tall building on the left, trees and lower buildings on the right. The sky is filled with clouds, layers of pink and bruised purple in colour.

A mild Monday morning and the sky with a light dusting of clouds

#photography #BlueSkyMonday #clouds

Blue sky with what looks like a light dusting of clouds, possibly cirrocumulus. Trees and a park lamp are in the foreground.

Littering or natural composting?

#ColorADay #OrangeSun #discarded #photography

A piece of discarded citrus peel that is orange, lying in the sun in a garden bed beside the footpath. The peel looks as though it has been there for some time. Two small mall twigs lie across the peel. In the garden bed are fallen leaves, what looks like wood chips, and sticks and other twigs. The footpath is in the lower right corner of the frame. In the top left of the frame is another orange piece of peel, not immediately obvious, in the shade.

Treasure flowers in a kerb island, from last week as today is overcast and now windy

#SundayYellow #SensoryArt #shadows #bloomscrolling #flowers #photography

Several yellow flowers, some in focus and fully visible, some not. They are spilling over the white edge of a kerb island from where (which?) they are growing, as seen from an angle above. There are shadows of the flowers and leaves on the edge.
