Job of the week, cleaning five million holes…

ImageJune 5, 2014 Peter HallettLeave a comment

Spotted these two high above Broadway, Sydney, on the side of the newest University of Technology Sydney (UTS) building. I was wondering if they were cleaning the holes and if so, they are probably still there… The top end of Broadway now features an interesting array of architecture with this meandering structure alongside the iconic […]

Happy New Year from Sydney

Xmas in the sky with baubles

‘Xmas Decor…’ Mmm, yes, how about a billion singing angels or wandering, wondering star or God fleshly veiled…

Stonehenge rocks

Once in the rain and again in the sunshine, Stonehenge managed to assert its ancient presence on the green Salisbury plains. But there is a greater Rock, eternal rather than just ancient…

Salute to Salisbury

With the tallest steeple in England and its very own copy of the Magna Carta, it’s hard to beat the sublime proportions and prayerful ambience of Salisbury Cathedral.

Our national undertow surfaces

ImageJanuary 26, 2012January 26, 2012 Peter HallettLeave a comment

This morning I tweeted: ‘#AustraliaDay, like any anniversary arrives amidst strength & weakness, sorry & joy. These are acknowledged & we move on together #AusDayNSW’. Later in the day Tony Abbott said something similar and the drama pictured (7 News) unfolded. Australia Day must be a time we celebrate the nation we are and must […]

And then there was a flag… followed by a polite pirate

ImageNovember 22, 2011 Peter HallettLeave a comment

We wonder if Sydney’s inner west resident flag-marcher will be out and about today after Australia’s great win in the second test in South Africa. He was first spotted on the eve of one of Australia’s Rugby World Cup games, spreading national fervour around the intersection of Crystal St and Parrmatta Rd. When photographed, he […]

Two icons embrace

ImageNovember 19, 2011November 19, 2011 Peter HallettLeave a comment

Sydney’s Jacarandas are giving a mauving display this spring as are the different varieties of flame trees. These two took a moment for a fond embrace in Glebe this week. Purple, the colour of divinity, wrapped around a heart of fire…
