Pedestrian in serious condition after being struck by falling woman A man is hospitalised with serious injuries after being hit by a woman who police believe fell from a building in Melbourne's CBD.

“The woman's death is not being treated as suspicious.” 

Ok, but the whole (very short) story is gruesomely bizarre. #Melbourne3000

An enormous, round shade ringed by a circular rim of white light globe. It looks like something you’d find in a giant’s surgery.

We have some very new train stations in #Melbourne3000 and I really like the industrial-style lighting that‘s been installed. #SundayPixLights #SundayPix

Yesterday, the Sweeping of the Deck led to the Scrubbing of the Deck, and that led to the Resurfacing of the Deck today. Perfect weather for it, #Melbourne3000 / #Epping3076. 🥰

Large, slender, orange arches over these long, pendant lights that have several bulbs in them. Industrial looking as well as churchy.

I really like the industrial lighting choices in the #Melbourne3000 #MetroTunnel stations. The yellow and orange colours are bright and pleasant.

Whenever I head into the city, I make time to have a cruller at Short Stop, since it’s my favourite kind of doughnut, and a rare offering here in #Melbourne3000. Australian honey glazed and lightly sprinkled with sea salt. 😘 #SundayPixMemorableFood #SundayPix
