While I may have failed at taking lots of photos in Sydney, I feel like I kinda made up for it in Canberra. It might be a small city and whatnot but my friend Bek certainly manages to prove to me each time I visit that that doesn't mean it is boring! From delicious food to amazing scenic hikes to a day of science, we certainly made the best of my short time there. To begin, a leisurely stroll around Lake Burley Griffin at sunset - definitely exactly what I needed a after a four and a half hour train ride! I've gotta say - Canberra does good sunsets!<br />

After a very relaxing break today was back to reality, back to work, back to days and days of early mornings. Booooo. I've actually been back in Perth for a week and had intended to blog some holiday snaps earlier but you know... time gets away from me! While I had an absolutely wonderful break in Sydney with my brother and his beautiful family, I found when I got home that I didn't really take many photos around the city. The ones above were about the best I got - I didn't even make it to the bridge this time! It would seem that my focus was pretty well targeted towards these two cuties.<br />

Last week I posted a view looking along Murray Street with a church off in the distance (see it <a href="http://lifesallaboutthelittlethings.blogspot.com.au/2016/08/252016-brrrr.html">here</a>)... Yesterday I decided to go for a meander down the road for a bit of a closer look. While I'm not a churchgoer myself I have to admit St Mary's Cathedral up by the Royal Perth hospital is a lovely building, especially at the moment while surrounded by bare trees and gloomy skies.<br />

I know I've only just gotten back but tomorrow I'm off to
Sydney to visit my brother and his family (and meet my gorgeous new
nephew - can't even wait for baby cuddles!!) and then to Canberra to
visit a friend. I'll be back in a week hopefully with a stock of
interesting interstate photos to share. Have a great week!Aimeecakeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02465152153690592265noreply@blogger.com14St Mary's Catholic Cathedral, 41 Victoria Square, Perth WA 6000, Australia-31.955381 115.86643320000007-57.4774155 74.557839200000075 -6.433346499999999 157.17502720000007tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6149030738553882922.post-67305484368414472772016-08-10T20:55:00.000+08:002016-08-10T20:55:07.041+08:0030/2016 - Tree Lined<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I seem to have a bit of a thing for the streets in the city at the moment. I think its something about the wintry days, there's just this light that makes everything look picturesque to me. Of course it doesn't hurt when the street is lined with trees full of flaming red flowers like this one...<br />

Or lush green leaves like these... either way its nice to take a break from work to wander along them at lunch time (when it's not bucketing with rain of course!).<br />

The other day I may have been distracted by the hordes of mobile Pokemon junkies, but I did actually get those flower and skyline photos that drew me to Kings Park in the first place. It may have changed a little over the last few years but I always love this view of our little city...<br />

I've been pretty slack on the old exercise front lately, so in an effort to increase my step count for the day yesterday I went for a wander up to Kings Park on my lunch break. I was thinking I could catch some photos of some flowers... maybe some nice skylines...<br />
<br />
...and ok - I had heard that there were a bunch of Pokemon to catch up there. Turns out lots of people had heard the same thing! I know that the whole Pokemon Go thing causes mixed reactions with people (Mamma hates it and takes <u>every</u> opportunity she can find to tell me that its stupid), but as a highly geeky person who is maaaaaybe a tad compulsive about collecting things I kinda love it. Not in a crazy trespassing/playing while driving/roaming the streets in the middle of the night kinda way, more in a nostalgic kinda way. And hey - all those people looking at their phones made me feel less nerdy about getting up close and personal with a bunch of flowers and real life critters!<br />

Ahhh a beautiful sunset over the ocean - good for the soul! I always think that clouds make for the best sunsets and yesterday after a gloomy day the sun decided to make a brief but brilliant appearance out by the lighthouse. It would seem that this is a popular spot for young families to wind down at the end of the day with a spot of fishing, I can definitely see why!<br />

After work today I went for a wander down to the light house at Hillarys to see what kind of sunset I could catch. After a day full of numbers and spreadsheets the sea air has a definite restorative effect for me. Although the clouds took some of the chill out of the air today I still think that these folks rowing off into the sunset were pretty brave to venture out into the wintery waters...<br />

While I really do enjoy a good storm, I've gotta say, these crisp, sunny winter days are just beautiful. Perfect weather for a lunch time wander around the city - certainly provides a nice break from all of the crosseye-inducing spreadsheets I've got going on in the office at the moment!<br />

While it sounds a tad spooky, the <a href="http://trailswa.com.au/trails/ghost-house-walk-trail">Ghost House Walk Trail in Yanchep National Park</a> is actually a nice easy 9.2 km hike through very pretty, very green bush. The 'Ghost House' itself is more like a "Ghost Doorway' - not much house left to speak of. I tried to find out if there was some kind of backstory to it, but alas none was to be found. Although I suppose that might be a good thing - I am a big scaredy cat when it comes to the subject of ghosts... <br />

I don't know what it is about bugs and worms and spiders (oh my!) - they creep me right out and yet if I spot them when my camera is in my hand... I just can't help myself I have to snap them in all their gross glory. This writhing little bundle of caterpillars (google informs me that a group of caterpillars is called an Army but that doesn't seem to fit right to me) were huddled together for warmth on a bench - I was VERY glad I spotted them and didn't sit on them!<br />

When I think of Yanchep I always picture beaches, but going for a hike in the Yanchep National Park a couple of weekends ago definitely showed me that there's a lot more on offer there! </div>

Well... I suppose if you read <a href="http://perthdailyphoto.blogspot.com.au/">Mamma's blog</a> then you'd already know that (I pop up there from time to time). With excessively busy work times and my immune system appearing to have decided to welcome every bug going round with open arms this year I've been seriously lacking in motivation lately. But I've decided it's time to pick the camera back up! I've missed it... And what better way to start with than my favourite thing - tiny plants with even tinier dew drops on them! A Sunday hike on the <a href="http://trailswa.com.au/trails/eagles-view-walk">Eagle View Walk Trail in John Forrest National Park</a> provided waterfalls, pretty flowers and stunning views out over the city - what more could one ask for? <br />

Despite Mum's initial apprehension, Elizabeth Quay has become a bit of a favourite for me on my lunchtime walks. I think (at least at this stage before all the skyscrapers go in) that its very pretty down there... <br />

I think <a href="http://perthdailyphoto.blogspot.com.au/2016/03/sculpture-by-sea-ii.html">Mum's new word</a> will catch on! When going through my photos there was definitely a section of intense cloudette action :) Kakashi by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%BDilvinas_Kempinas">Zilvinas Kempinas </a>was up with there with my favourite pieces in the exhibition (I am aware I have said that a lot...). Such magic made from such simple parts - snow posts and bird ribbons. <br />

I know my posts have been a lot longer than usual over Sculptures by the Sea but man, if I were to break it out to one post per sculpture I'd still be going at Christmas! I'm gonna aim to keep it to one more post after this one...

I think 'Bubble' by Sydney based multi-media artists <a href="http://gunyah.blogspot.com.au/2013/04/upcoming-artists-in-residence-pamela.html">Pamela Lee Brenner and Johannes Muljana</a> would look even better lit up at night time... a shame I doubt I'll get back for that.<br />

As a person who enjoys textures, Manscape by WA artist <a href="http://www.tonydavisart.com.au/">Tony Davis</a> is a favourite. I was pretty pleased to catch a shot without any children clambering around inside of this one (although that does also add a certain charm!)<br />

You just know that the beautiful bright colours of Austrian artist Markus Hoder's Der Traktor would draw me like a magnet! Apparently this piece is in response to the WA mining industry, although I'm not quite sure what it's trying to say?<br />

I couldn't resist taking a quick snap of this little munchkin as she gazed up at <a href="http://karenmacherportafolio.blogspot.com.au/">Karen Macher Nesta's </a>Seas Sponges. The next moment she started throwing sand at them... I guess thats what she thought of that!'<br />

Spotted through the trees from above you don't quite get a proper sense of the size of 'Dust' by WA Artist Norton Flavel. Known for his over-sized sculptures (who could forget the <a href="http://weloveperth.net.au/the-creative-artist-norton-flavel/">giant goon bag</a> a couple of years back??), this years piece looks a whole lot more impressive close up. As with his piece '<a href="http://lifesallaboutthelittlethings.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/sixty-two-lucky-country.html">Lucky Country</a>' from last year I was impressed with the size of the main body of the piece being held up by a relatively slim base. Very clever.</div>

Those of you who follow <a href="http://perthdailyphoto.blogspot.com.au/2016/03/sculpture-by-sea-1.html">Mum's blog</a> have already seen this piece. Interesting enough to coax her down to the sand despite her sore knee and strict physio instructions, the Book Cave by Juliet Lea (another WA artist!) was made up of a variety of great (and not so great) titles - although I suspect I've read less of them than Mum has. I loved the snap below with a little face poking out of the cave. There were a few interactive pieces this year which is always fun, especially for the kids (or the young at heart!). </div>

So... I've been missing for a while now.... To be honest I actually haven't been taking many photos lately. Lets call it a brief lack of inspiration. But today I finally got up super early in the morning and picked up the camera to go explore this year's Sculptures by the Sea in Cottesloe. So now I have roughly a billion photos for you!</div>
<div class="first" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="first" style="text-align: left;">
Starting with <a href="http://www.domusweb.it/en/news/2015/06/22/kwy_somaerke.html">Sømærke by Berlin based architecture collective KWY, Ricardo Gomes and Ben Allen with Lise Kassow</a>. I'm always drawn to wooden sculptures - I think I just like the texture and grain in wood - always interesting when you get up close. This was the first sculpture that struck me as I approached the beach and I enjoyed the different perspectives you get from different angles.</div>

And when one stretches their birthday celebrations out over a series of days, some delicious food of questionable nutritious value is bound to ensue.. From <a href="http://www.sanchurro.com/">late night chocolate fondue</a> with a good friend, to delicious <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Betty-and-Daves-938654722827496/">brunch</a> with my parents, to tasty cupcakes made with love by two adorable munchkins to just the most <a href="http://www.whiskcreamery.com.au/">insane milkshake</a> (complete with cronut and macaron) it's been a big week for my stomach. Or it's been a week to make my stomach big. Either way - it's salads and exercise for me from Monday onwards!<br />

Another day, another Spiegeltent... or two! My actual birthday on Thursday was a totally perfect day - started with a stunning early morning beach walk followed by scrumptious brunch with Mum and Dad, naps in the afternoon and not one but two fringe shows in the evening. First up was <a href="http://www.strutnfret.com/artist-production/limbo/">LIMBO</a> - another circus/cabaret/acrobatic type show, but so different to La Soiree! Both were amazing, but with music specially composed for the show and performed on stage, this felt much more choreographed (which was all really cool). I was also impressed with the versatility of the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rB_ylTi4WiA">performers </a>- from playing instruments/singing to acrobatics to dancing and sword/fire swallowing, the same 6 performers did almost everything. Oh to be so multi talented! (and again the boys weren't rough on the eyes...)<br />

The second show of the night was <a href="http://friskyandmannish.co.uk/">Frisky and Mannish</a>, a British comedy musical cabaret act. I saw these guys a few years back and really enjoyed the way they dissect and play around with pop songs to turn them into <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WESu1bbMR9k">something different</a>. A super fun way to end off the day!</div>

I always seem to manage to make my birthday last for at least a few days and this year is no different. This year's festival of Aimee began the day before my birthday (on Wednesday) with tickets to see the very fabulous <a href="http://www.la-soiree.com/">La Soiree</a>. How fortunate I am to have my birthday fall right in the middle of <a href="https://www.fringeworld.com.au/">Perth Fringe Festival</a>! This is my second time seeing La Soiree (I went last year) and it was just as great as I remembered it. A mix of saucy cabaret, burlesque and circus sideshow there's something for everyone (well, everyone over the age of 18 anyway!). I've gotta say my favourite act is probably the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAOHi2jEUbw">English Gents</a>... for their awesome feats of strength, its totally not because they are super hot....<br />

If you follow my Mum over at <a href="http://www.perthdailyphoto.blogspot.com/">Perth Daily Photo</a> you've no doubt seen a rant or two (or three or four!!) about the development going on at Elizabeth Quay. Well, I hate to disagree buuuuuut, from first impressions I kinda love it. I missed the opening on Friday night due to hot weather and general laziness, but we went for a wander today after work and I really enjoyed what I saw. Some wider shots will be forthcoming in the next couple of days, but I thought I'd begin with a bit of a teaser shot. Happy Monday!<br />

Well this week has certainly gotten away from me! With hectic workloads
keeping me at the office late and a new exercise routine getting me up
super early I'm a wee bit exhausted! But apparently not too exhausted to
make the stinking hot trek all the way through Northbridge up to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/chubakery/?hl=en">Chu bakery</a> for some
delicious food and a brief sit in the shade in Hyde Park the other day!
I don't walk in that direction very often but every time I do I notice
different bits of street art. This huge piece is a collaboration between Perth artists <a href="http://martinewills.com/">Martin E Willis</a>, <a href="http://www.jesseeleejohns.com.au/">Jessee Lee Johns</a>, <a href="http://daekwilliam.com/">Daek William</a>, <a href="http://kylehughesodgers.com/">Kyle Hughes-Odgers</a> and <a href="http://mtnaustralia.com.au/blog/feature-artist-pures-hd/">Pures HD</a>. With so many different styles smooshed together there's so much to see!</div>

Ok - these are my last shots at the lighthouse (at least for this trip!). I really enjoyed all the rust and texture I found here, and I'm always fond of a twisting staircase. Not sure why this little lock was hanging there but I'm sure it means something to someone!<br />
