Blooming Mt Eliza

These captivating blooms (Lisianthus, I think) were found in Mt Eliza, during last month's visit to the Mornington Peninsula and were spotted as I attempted to walk off the gastronomic treat I'd enjoyed at the Village Pantry there!

Across the Bay

These views are of Melbourne CBD across Port Philip Bay from the Mornington Peninsula.

(that's wind roughing up the water's surface in the foreground, not a mass of seaweed - in case you were wondering!)

Linking up (hopefully!) with Our World Tuesday

Scot's Church

The following images are of The Scot's Church, the first Presbyterian church in Victoria, Australia, founded in 1838.

It is located at the corner of Collins and Russell Streets in Melbourne

and I so much appreciate its architectural beauty.

Here, its steeple is reaching toward the heavens.

(I've been trying unsuccessfully for some weeks now to link up with

Our World Tuesday again - would greatly appreciate it if someone could contact me by email to explain where I'm going wrong)

Flinders St Station

Flinders Street Station, Melbourne, reflected in a window at the top of the station steps coming up from the platforms. (and no, they are not UFOs in the sky, just downlights from inside the building!).

Crowne Plaza Hotel complex - Melbourne

This is another shot taken within the Crowne Plaza where the spectacular light, sound and water show depicting the four seasons is displayed.  On the right hand side wall of this shot you can see images of palm fronds (see weekend reflections and below for others)

Crowne Plaza complex in Melbourne

This is part of a daily spectacular light, sound & water feature show within the complex which depicts the four seasons. This is just one of the walls on which images are displayed and one of several "fountains" from which differing spouts of water emerge. Captivating!

Scenic Sunday - Melbourne

Viewing the streets and buildings of Melbourne's CBD - from another era - and oblivious to the hustle and bustle of today's traffic and trams.

Weekend Reflections - Melbourne

This is the interior of a rather grand hotel in the CBD of Melbourne - this design somewhat took my breath away!

Interesting entrance

This unusual artwork graces the foyer of the Crown Plaza/Casino complex in Melbourne, Australia.
