Australia Souvenir

A fine capture with attractive colour.

May I call it "kitsch".

Further study got me fascinated with the iconography. The figures are very well defined, and the ones for the cities are especially interesting. I especially liked Melbourne with its streetcar/tram and tower, for a reason I will shortly explain. A Canadian equivalent would have an inukshuk in the North, an oilrig in Alberta, wheat on the Prairies, Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia, and for Toronto -- a streetcar/tram and the CN Tower!

And moose. It would have moose.

Canada is a country I would love to visit.
