These bicycles are scattered right through Sydney city and surrounds. You hire them using an app I think. Someone has left this one on a wharf. You can see the old rail tracks where the puddle is. If you go to the end of this wharf you can see the Sydney Harbour Bridge. I love … Continue reading Hiatus photography – bike and a barge

Community Festival
This is the first time since lockdown that our area has celebrated our annual food and wine festival. Three years and we have so missed you. Food, wine, live music, and a jumping castle for the kids. It was a real community event. A great weekend was had by all.

They run the race, reach … Continue reading #Poetry – Fishing Rod Races

Our laughter mixes on the breeze and joins each splash of oar, as the harbour listens to our tales that echo to the shore. Picnics greet us round the bend with trees so lush and … Continue reading #Poetry – Spell of the harbour
