Norwood--pre-dawn

I took these photos one morning a few weeks ago on my way to work. I'd left early so I wouldn't have to rush, so had plenty of time to take photos.








Parade Central

Situated at the intersection of The Parade and George Street.

    Dawn is such a magical time of day. It even softens (and improves) shopping centres which are not my favourite places. Thanks

    So peaceful before the hords invade it, almost like an art gallery.

    EC; this is an exceptionally pretty mall, housing cafes and the Hoyts cinema complex.

    mybabyjohn; it really is the best time to be out and about. I hate crowds.

    The calm before the storm, before the hords come trampling in :-).

    Such a pity the human race has to invade our spaces ;)

    I love Norwood. It's one of my favourite places to visit when I'm in Adelaide visiting family. Thanks for sharing. It's nice to take it easy on the way to work ;) xx

    I don't know whether I appreciate the architecture and form of it or that it spooks me out a little seeing it bare and empty!

    Windsmoke; the hordes are a necessary nuisance.

    Jayne; without the human race there wouldn't be such spaces though.

    Kymmie; How long is it since you've been here? There's been a change or two....

    Carol; I like it bare and empty, although I don't mind a few people. It's the meandering crowds who impede my progress that drive me nuts.

    I'll vote for your idea for your electric blanket cord. WOW.....The pictures look gleaming and clean. Looks like a tile world. :)

Words for Wednesday

Image
 The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:  1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.
