Abandoned

Today's theme day is "abandoned" and in truth our built environment is so new that it's rare indeed to find anything in a state such as this.   I was expecting to have to find a photo of a lost dog, or a lonely thong lying on a beach, but instead I stumbled across an old house.

It won't be there for long, of that one can rest assured.  Shortly we'll see a lovely new cream block of flats in its place I'll wager.

Abandoned - a day early

Tomorrow is a theme day I'm quite excited about because I picked it.  So excited I have two photos, so I can let this one go a day early.

I like the cupboard door handle, I LOVE the colours in the kitchen and I am sad that all that asbestos cladding both in and outside mean that none of this will be preserved.

Learn to dive while we have coffee.

HMAS Brisbane

When they sunk the Brisbane a kilometre or so offshore, they said it would become one of the world's great dive sites.  I have no idea whether it is or it isn't, but I'm told it's coral encrusted now and full of the sorts of fishy things that divers love to see.

Not abandoned. Just not loved.

It looks deserted, but somewhere down there, there is at least one real life  shop selling things to all who come.  It must be a hard way to make a living.

What do you call those things?

Is it a lantern or a roof light?  Actually it's fake, there's a false ceiling way below with all the air conditioning bits running in it, but it's wearing rather nicely in my humble opinion.
