Off to…
I will be changing locations and providing commentary on new places over the next year. The first stop on the calendar is Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. Stay tuned for images and architectural banter on this super dense, thriving metropolis.
For now though, a few images of a recent junket in Melbourne, Australia. A city that truly has moved in leaps and bounds since its near death experience in the 80’s. All photos were taken in September.
Old VW can near Richmond.

Can’t remember, but a common scene.

A horrible photo of nH’s new convention centre. Why didn’t Perth get one of these?

Another one. I never thought it’d prove to be this difficult…

I will miss you Perth, you beautiful thing.
