    Neck Minnit…

    You’re a bloody marvel Ian, just so you know.

    Sorry for delayed response. Trying to think of clever riposte, but that’s a hard one to top.

    Aside from the yellow gamboge amber& orangish lights, that's a damned harsh and brutalist-looking building eh?

    Anyone else find this a bit glitchy trying to upload pics?

    No. Maybe a little slow but I'm sure that’s just me.

    So glad I was empty handed when I fired up the screen... that is coffee on the keyboard quality, that first pic! all of them fuse that perfect moment in time... the funny one.

    The time I like is the rush hour, cos I like the rush
    The pushing of the people - I like it all so much
    Such a mass of motion - do not know where it goes
    I move with the movement and ... I have the touch.

    Last one... some folks on their way home after the races. Melbourne on Cup day has a good vibe.

    Either an Ur-Transformer or a support strut for a now removed cable car. Hard to be sure from the train!

  • Islander,

    Sometimes, just some times, I get a hint of why cities appeal to other people...

    I love this shot, Damian. Such fierce concentration on this wee man's face.

  • Jackie Clark,

    I was just thinking that the brief you gave, Jackson, was to post our best shots of 2011. It grieves me, more than I can say, that I can't ever share my best shots with you all, because every last one of the most wonderful photos I take are of the children I teach. So in lieu, I shall have to describe my favourite photo to you. I should qualify why it's my favourite. In theory, one should not, as a professional teacher, have children who one favours. However, there is one little girl - I call her my daughter from another mother (out of earshot of everyone concerned, of course). And in practice, I don't favour her more than anyone else, except in my heart. She has a lovely family, a loving wonderful family, so it isn't that she has it worse than any other child here, like some I teach. She has just the most wondrous, joyful, inquiring, open spirit. Every morning, she comes to seek me out, just to touch base, and make sure that we are where we are meant to be, her and I. The photo is of her and I looking into the little aperture on the top of my laptop, with our faces together, enjoying the photographic capture of our relationship. It's one in a series of photos that she and I took together, using Photo Booth with it's different effects. When we'd finished taking the photos, we were looking at all of them. And I asked her which one she liked best - bearing in mind, we'd taken about 20, and that big a number can be confusing to a 3 1/2 year old. She looked at the options on the screen, and pointed to the shot. Why do you like that one? I asked her. "Because. It's you and me" she said.
