The Horror's











One of my daily torments is the "Territorian apostrophe". Even the Vietnamese know how to use one properly!

These are but a few examples, however there is evidence of this egregious misdemeanour everywhere. The last one, which is a bit difficult to make out, is the most inexplicable of the lot: "chipolata's" follows directly after "hash browns" and "eggs".

Of course, I blame the local school system.

Sunset on the way to French class








For all its faults, Darwin sunsets are unsurpassed in my experience. In fact the sky is a worthy photographic subject at almost any time of day.

The campus of Charles Darwin Uni had been cleverly designed to incorporate a lot of the special features of the environs. This shot is the centrepiece: a vast, vibrant lawn stretching into the sunset, framed by delibetately geometric structures.
