Old Queensland Museum

25 Jan 2024 43 32 219
Photo from 1964 of (what is now officially the "Old") Queensland Museum and Art Gallery. This was copied from one of my earliest slides, on Anscochrome film which has not aged well - see PiP for the unedited copy. Brisbane now has new museums and galleries, but at least this building has been preserved. The tram tracks and overhead cables have long since gone. Happy Fence Friday and have a great weekend, everyone.

Near the city

There can't be too many cities with cliffs nearby that are suitable for rock climbing and abseiling! After a day at work, it now seems a popular way for many to relax in Brisbane (see also the note). View large. On the subject of rocks, a parting link to one the greatest rockers. Explored. Help save ipernity - www.ipernity.com/group/2260604/discuss/186760

Evening city lights

Merged evening panorama of Brisbane. Not much of a sunset, but the lights made up for it. It's some years since I visited the city and I can't get over how much the buildings have grown - the bridge and City Hall (now lost among the giants) were once the tallest. Best viewed large. Explored. Spread the news: www.ipernity.com/group/2260604/discuss/186760

Poincianas

Many of these lovely tropical street trees around Brisbane, and they are in flower for our visit. It's a long time since I'd heard this song by Caterina Valente, but it's just as good as ever. Explored.

Fence and railings

This house in Brisbane is a style known as a 'Queenslander'. View larger to see the beautiful cast iron railings. Best wishes for the weekend and HFF, everyone.

The Motorway

For many of you this is commonplace, but I'm a country kid. :) A glitch in my computer prevented me loading this earlier. Looks best viewed large. HFF! Explored.
