A very faint rainbow around our plane’s shadow on the way back from Melbourne. The phenomenon is called a glory. This photo has had its contrast stretched to within an inch of its life to bring out the colours, we weren’t really flying over a Bill Henson theme park.
I’m starting a new job on Monday: blogging will probably be sporadic for a while. There are two Shakespeare plays in the queue.

I was walking from the Druitt St bus stop to work this morning and decided to use the footpath on the Western Distributor instead of my usual goat track through Darling Harbour.
It took me well out of my way but I wouldn’t have met these rainbow lorikeets otherwise.
Just when I thought they might have been ailing or consumptive and unable to fly off the bridge (I know, I know, so then if they were too weak to fly then how did they get onto the bridge? Bundled out of a van? Or maybe they walked up from the Druitt St bus stop too) they flew across to the convention centre, where they hung out with a pretty disreputable looking ibis.

As part of their upcoming exhibition Modern Times – the untold story of Modernism in Australia, the Powerhouse Museum have created a public Flickr group and invited the public to post their own photos and images.
Which is pretty untold.

Last Wednesday afternoon. Didn’t have my real camera so I had to use the phone.
