As Jayne says, the Nylex clock is busted. I saw Dimmeys clock highlighted by the setting sun tonight. By the time I could get the camera, the light had moved on.
ReplyDeleteI want to live in Melbourne so badly! You have the most beautiful home! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely picture Ms Librarian - Melbourne's industrial buildings are fascinating subjects for landscape photos. It'll be a shame when they all disappear, replaced by bland apartment blocks that developers build at an absolute minimum of cost for maximum profit...
ReplyDeleteHi Andrew. Yep. I wish *someone* would come to its rescue. Funny how quickly the sun moves through the sky when you pay attention to it.
ReplyDeleteHey Roxanne. Thanks! It is a pretty awesome place to live.
Hey Chris. Thank you. I like the old industrial buildings too. Fortunately, I don't think the silos with the Nylex clock on top will ever be in danger. I used to be able to see the whole horizon in view until they built that box of apartments in the middle there a couple of years ago.
