Geelong
Weekly Photo Challenge-Evanescent
~~~~~
My contribution for this week’s challenge…
Evanescent
~~~~~
According to Google the literary meaning of evanescent is…
soon passing out of sight, memory,
or existence; quickly fading or disappearing.
The first things that came to mind were rainbows.
They appear from nowhere and before you can say…
where’s the camera, or aaahhh!
they are fading to memory.
This shot I called Two Minutes of Magic.
I would not have had time to run, let alone walk,
the length of the pier to
grab a camera, battery or SD card.
The world aligned for two minutes
allowing me to capture a sunrise on
Point Lonsdale Lighthouse
that I was not anticipating.

Weekly-Weather-Day
On May 16 we had a reasonably heavy fog/haze which
restricted day time visibility…
to a few hundred metres.

Weekly Photo Challenge-Heritage
~~~~~
My contribution for this week’s challenge…
Heritage
~~~~~
Part of Geelong’s Heritage listing are
these old red brick buildings
on Geelong’s Waterfront.
These buildings used to house all wool bales for sale
and it was a tradition to visit the Geelong sales
when your wool was due to be auctioned.
Those in power, in their wisdom have placed the buildings,
of which these are but a few, on a heritage list.
This means that the externals facade will
forever remain the same, but…
as this one, the purpose and interior can be remodeled.
In this instance this is the
Waterfront Campus of
Geelong’s Deakin University.
On a personal level, part of my heritage has been
the connection to this gun which fired the first Allied shot,
from just across the Bay at Point Nepean, of World War I.
My Grandfather was part of that gun crew.
He went to serve on the Western Front in France and Belgium.
I plan to visit this area in a few weeks.

Foreground
Some shots with a definite foreground…
A fence around a grave.
Again a grave fence.
Finishing a less sombre note,
one of our grevillea tree blooms.

Weekly-Weather-Humid
Many years ago, before we were married,
MGW suffered a severe asthma attack…
during a period if thundery,
humid weather.
Only in the last two or three years has the term…
‘thunderstorm asthma’ been used and recognised
as a cause of asthma attacks.

Weekly Photo Challenge-Reflecting
~~~~~
My contribution for this week’s challenge…
Reflecting
~~~~~
I have chosen some ‘Reflections’ this week.
Balyang Sanctuary…
in Geelong.
Balyang Sanctuary.
Balyang Sanctuary.
However, this one gave me time to reflect on the
levels of our backyard on May 11, this year.
