Looking longingly at the City of Melbourne over the Yarra River

Not quite the weekend I was expecting
The weekend was a bit of a bust in the city. It rained nearly all day on Saturday which wasn’t great after a really bad nights sleep. It is hard to be okay, but what […]

Playing around with more AI images but these are from Photoshop

Instagram Thursday – Docklands from 2014

Lens Artist Challenge #296 – Abstract
