Little church

I love this little church - nestled under large trees, right in the middle of a residential area. It's not used on Sundays, and I know that sometimes counsellors work out of there during the week. It's a pity it's not better used, though - such an excellent location. It has a feeling of being embedded in the community, even if it has very few (if any?) connections to the local area.

Brunswick houses

I often notice this house with its enormous dish in the front yard as I ride past on my bike. I've mentally noted that it's somewhat incongruous and counter-cultural for the area, until I stopped today to take a photo. And noticed the solar panels all over the roof, huge water tank and solid sun blinds for carbon-neutral climate control.


I love the appearance of this house - very natural tones, slightly arty design, neatly presented, native garden. This kind of look is increasingly popular in the area - I wouldn't be surprised if there was lots of wooden floors, exposed beams, light and airy.

I doubt I'll ever afford that kind of thing, though, and although I love it, I'm not sure I'd spend the money on my house even if I had it.


Signs of Brunswick's cultural diversity - I don't think this is the house of a young Anglo professional.

Brunswick photo: Discarded TVs

On the way to school. During the last hard-waste collection, there were old TVs almost every 10 steps. It's not collection time at the moment. What will happen to them next?
