Bookish


We went down the road a little outside of town to the Berkelouw Book Barn and spent a happy hour or so browsing the stacks.

  1. Ah, now I only know the two Berks in Sydney (Paddington and Leichhardt). Berrima is looking more enticing.

  2. I haven't been to this place although I've passed it a few times. Must next time I'm in Berrima.

  4. Jule and Winam, definitely go there, it's big and stuffed full of interesting books. Nice log fire too on cold days.

    Sean, I am fascinated for example, to see how Julie has visited the same places as me but sees totally different details. I walk around the city and can't see a single thing to shoot whereas I know you would be busy snapping away. I am learning for these different interpretations to try and push my boundaries while at the same time as being true to my own vision of things.

  6. Hi Martina, I did the same and discover he is a poet. In fact I remember now that I have quoted one of his poems

Windy August

Tumbleweed It was August (known to be a windy month of the year) and it was blowing a gale.  Tumbleweeds hurtled across our path, pressed forward by the busy wind. While I was photographing the tumbleweed, I braved the icy blast to find a few more tiny flowers and fruits by the roadside.

The Pinnacles, Broken Hill Clear blue sky is very dull!  But there is something of interest in the image.  These odd shaped mountains appear on the skyline just outside the city. I had planned otherwise for my closing sky today.  On a hill outside town there are wonderful sandstone sculptures which I saw the last time I was here. I planned to photograph them against the setting sun but we left our run too late, so you don’t get to see them until our return journey.
