No AGL sign...

Inventive protest. No damage. So simple and so noticeable. I even like how the woven sign takes nothing away from the view beyond...like a see-through tag. Kudos to the creator.

Crib Point is on Westernpoint Bay, on the eastern side of my Mornington Peninsula. 

Ghadames...

I Googled...White buildings dominate. Rooftops connected. Islam says women can't be seen outside family. Women use the rooftops as streets to travel through town. Early 1990's, many left - houses deteriorating + lack of water. https://t.co/OVDKVM2Us6

More details of the highs and lows of Ghadames HERE 
It is now a UNESCO World Heritage site...

peapod art...

An utterly amazing piece of artwork. I wonder what tools were used to create such minute detail so effectively.

Mungo National Park is an incredible well of history in the Australian outback, still being unravelled...The dry landscapes whisper of more water-connected days...And the footprints embedded there speak of old, old lives... A mysterious, magical place...

time to learn about fire...

No public apology to the Aboriginal community is worth the historical publicity if not followed by active demonstrations of respect. The Aborigines have known the ways of this land for far longer than we white ones... Let them be heard and teach us... Start with cool burning eh?

Shostakovich is normal?...

Shostakovich looks decidedly nervous about being 'normal', if it involves being caught publicly casual with his wife and close to a cat...Clearly, his comfort zone is music...That's his public heaven...

Love any music by Shostakovich...He brings the voices of the Universe close to Earth...

I like gathering the beauty of landscapes...It's good to have many deposits in the bank, in case of some unforeseen recession...
