    This boot picture is unusual.
    Yeah, we rented a house in Mudgee (wine tasting territory :D ) one weekend and when I was wandering around the grounds I came across a washing line that just had boots on it......

    It must have been.... boot day, I guess.

    Hmm, not sure about 'tasty'... it was one of those moments when you see water pouring through an electric light... stop to take a photo... then realise you're standing in the middle of a huge puddle on a flooded pavement!

    It was crazy-hot in Sydney on Saturday. I took this at 4.40pm:

    The contrast of the double rainbow over the beach is amazing. Beauty and fury together.

    The front cover of a journal I was given for Christmas. Seems kind of appropriate here :)

    As part of the Sydney Festival, there's a currently 15 metre high rubber duck bobbing around in Darling Harbour:

    8390975904_f22b2c1988_n.jpg

    8390975508_8d3852c566_n.jpg

    It was created by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman with the sole purpose of providing a little joy in people's lives. 'Rubber Duck', he says, doesn't discriminate and has no political connotation. "It relieves everyday tensions, as well as defining them. Its purpose is to do no more than amaze."

    And maybe give a little reminder of all the plastic floating around the world's beaches and waters, and that we all have to contribute to looking after 'the bathtub'.
