Not sure if the #Bunurong (#Boonwurrung) people prefer either or older/newer?

View from the dining room, over the back fence. The neighbors’ yard features a mature eucalyptus and several sheoaks (Allocasuarina) and other large shrubs. A gap in the foliage (where a ghost gum was removed a couple of years ago) allows a glimpse of distant hills. Above, high clouds are tinted with pink and silvery blue in the dawn. Photo by me.

Drawing by a very young Hamish Donaldson: a child’s vision of a rocket ship. It has three windows with carefully drawn people looking out.

Catalogue listing: Hamish Donaldson, “Childhood rocket” (1996), blown and engraved glass. Not for sale.

Photo of Hamish Donaldson’s retro-style glass rocket ship.

Slightly different view of Hamish Donaldson’s retro-style glass rocket ship, showing the clear windows with etched people looking out from inside the spacecraft.

Visited the the Gordon Studio glass exhibition at McClelland Gallery today, and we loved it to bits. This one’s for you, @drspacejunk.bsky.social 🚀

(It’s not typical of the rest of the exhibition.)

Another spectacular sunset this evening on Bunurong Country, near Naarm Melbourne. In the foreground, the roofline of a neighbour’s house is dimly visible among thick shrubs and mature trees. Further afield, a pale grey sliver of Port Phillip Bay forms the western horizon. Above, fiery red clouds fade upwards to pearlescent cream, silver and graphite swirls. Photo by my sister, from her balcony.

Upon learning to fly Arthur Dent discovered that bird conversations were “fantastically boring. It was all to do with wind speed, wingspans, power-to-weight ratios and a fair bit about berries.”
