Permalink tram, Melbourne [artist Michael Leunig] Just went to the tram exhibition at the Old Treasury Building. Reminded me of this, one of a whole fleet of artist-painted trams in the late 80s/early 90s. Now there’s just advertising all over trams.

Permalink Side of a house, Fitzroy, Victoria Reminds me somewhat of where the wild things are.

Permalink Restaurant signage, Dotonbori, Osaka, Japan Slightly demonic food here?
Permalink Mdina, Malta Everything made of stone. Seems like a set under the streetlights but if you tap it, its real.
