Design, despair and delight.
Murals, LACMA parking garage (now torn down) by Barry McGee (Twist). (Photo credit: Wikipedia) After rather a slow morning the day became interesting when we took a bus to LACMA.

We arrived in LA
I'm sitting in our hotel room over looking Hollywood and beyond. It's 6.pm Wednesday 17th October here and ll.30 the next day at home. The bottles on the table are leaving strange shadows on the wall. The trip was eventful. There was a security scare in Melbourne. 1000's of travelers were shut out of immigration…

Strange but true.
This photo is my reflection in a piece of art in the Museum of contemporary Art Sydney. Its a privilege to be able to photograph in an art gallery. I have an amazing collection of photos from Galleries around the world. These are art pieces of infinite beauty. I've only come across…
