Hi, I’m George

George is a former Baroque composer and bon vivant. These days he likes riding a bicycle and taking photographs. He no longer likes wigs, gluttony etc.

Pilgrim Uniting Church, Bayview Rd, Yarraville, Sept 2021. The attractive round brick annex is next to the original church building on Bayview Rd in Yarraville.
‘With and With Each Other’ (Tom Bills, 1998), Footscray, Sept 2021. Cornwell Reserve, across from Footscray Park, is home to monumental concrete sculpture 'With and With Each Other' by American artist Tom Bills (1998). The sculpture, which looks for all the world like a pair of kidneys, was originally located near Melbourne’s Queen Victoria Market. It was mothballed in 2002 and appeared again in its current location in 2008.
Daisies, Footscray Park, Sept 2021.
Australian White Ibises over Quarry Park, Footscray, Sept 2021. These much-maligned birds are known colloquially as 'bin chickens' in view of their habit of feeding from bins, but really it just demonstrates their excellent adaptive capabilities. A bit like weeds.
Cranes at new Footscray Hospital site as seen from Quarry Park, Footscray, Sept 2021.
Pacific Black Duck, Edgewater Lake, Burndap Park, Maribyrnong, Sept 2021.
