Online Workshop This Month

Hello beautiful souls! It’s short notice but here is my online workshop of the month.

And I still do love seeing ships and boats departing and arriving at Circular Quay wharf, regardless small or large. And I took a number of photos

People Crossing Over The Tram Rails

It’s been quite sometime since I put my last post on here.   And unbelievably, there is only one month to go till the end of year 2019.   New tram service ‘Light Rail Sydney’ seems to start this year, for the first time since they had stopped the tramway network service in 1961. しばらくブログから遠ざかっていました。
