Steve Paxton's photos with the keyword: Fences

This is the outdoors kitchen the kids can play in sand, leaves, sticks. All the times I have even been in the kindy area this gets a hammering, boys and girls.. Last week I was asked could I please fix up the doors none closed properly all the old latches well rusted away. It was a case of remove the door that looks like an oven cut of a 5mm slice off one side as the door had very badly swollen in all the rain and water. I had nightmares all week as I knew it was going to be very wet on the day I planned to fix this. This morning you would have fitted in well if you were a duck when we first got to school and I was doing inside jobs. Side note to this we are only 15 days into the month BUT so far well ahead on any months average on record. The time I pick up leaves I could see it fine so I got everything I had got ready the previous day to do the job. I brought the bits I need down in our wheelbarrow plus a ground sheet as I had to lay on my back to remove the old rusted hardware. I had my head fully inside each of the three doors to first remove the old and put in the new. I was only two doors down when all the kids where set out to play me head inside a door guess who was the center attraction. The boys even went to get there "tools" and brought them out in the red wheelbarrow. The boys(with tools in hand) told the Girls who wanted to "use" the kitchen, they said you cant "Steve is fixing it". 45 min later it was all back together even the other shelves that where left out the water has twisted lots but it still works and kids fully enjoy it. So what is better than to be protected by those that where mimicking you. Then it was back to the real world leaves, dead birds, block drains............. small things that brighten your life.

Yes you know this place and have see it before many night time photos have come from here.

The start of summer showing in Sun burnt brown fields but there is still some green in the low lying areas.

A pleasant afternoons walk... part of the board walk

I could not pass this up.

The Stairs inside the York Town Hall.

The look out over Albany is even set up for wheel chair Access . I would not like to push a wheel chair up the slope to get here. view from the front.

I will take the Do not Fence me in.

I have placed a few PIPs on the shot so you can see just where the night shots have come from over the years I have been coming here. Sadly you can now the the industrial scare top of shot that all the light is now coming from. the one pip that will not work.

The small dam below Serpentine dam.

This is the tank that the water pipe line from Perth Flows into for the Supply of Kalgoorlie. the PIP shows the pipe that follows the road out there and ends up here with the water. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldfields_Water_Supply_Scheme Big thanks to see the site up and running as it will have been a big effort by every one behind the scenes.

The Fishing/Prawning Spot on the estuary, just dont get here late...... Home of the Aboriginal birthing springs where they traditionally came to give birth. This is just a very small part of the other wise Huge Mandurah Estuary. www.westernaustralia.com/en/Attraction/Mandurah_Estuary_and_Peel_Inlet/56b267b12cbcbe7073ae190f#

Enjoying freedom

As our locked down was cut back the clouds cleared and the moon was small and low. Sadly there was plenty of smoke. First real Chance to use the Clear night filter on the stars at night. Which is better. Good evening from Jess and Steve Find us.....

The long walk home.

a shot that was always in my mind but not some thing we see that often Here in Australia. So it was well worth the tip later in the day to capture it. For those technically minded shot at 350mm horizontal hand held panorama

all that's left of the petrol station. I plan to go back in the coming week to get a few shots to show the recovery if any. driving past in the dark last night to go shoot a few stars still does not look very good at all.

Looking to South Perth From Kings Park.
