Hello. I recently took a look at the works being done at the and you might be interested in these photos. Sharing without comment on the merits or otherwise of what's underway.

Looking up to the Memorial, a large crane breaks the view of Mount Ainslie behind it. Street level at the top of the Parade is a wide stretch of scaffolding covered by an image of the building's usual front vista.

From the lookout at Mount Ainslie some of the ground works being hidden by the scaffolding are visible.

Including a classic view looking down from Mount Ainslie, along the Parade and across the lake to old and new parliament houses and other national buildings in the parliamentary triangle. Stunning.

Some with a view from Shepherd’s Lookout near Belconnen, Canberra, overlooking the Murrumbidgee River. Early Silurian Walker Volcanics (dacitic ignimbrite) in the foreground forming the cliff.

Good morning.

The vast shadow being cast by this pine tree is wonderful.

Photo taken at the National Arboretum with wider view of on a bright, sunny day in the background.

@ajft Lots of beautiful orchids on Black Mt - it's amazing to be able to go for a quick walk and see half a dozen species out in spring - just minutes from the CBD of a national capital city :)

Here's a tree looking something like a lollipop with its tall, skinny trunk and a small, rounded canopy of branches.

Hilarious. I waited to see the responses and all that was needed to halt the debate was mention of Woden Plaza. It was ever thus.

Having hated growing up in Canberra and a long period living elsewhere, I now appreciate its charm, the fresh air and open spaces, and ready access to nature. There are great national institutions too.

I secretly love that folk say they would never live here and that it's (apparently) boring - great!!! Fewer to contend with and no time lost to endless traffic issues.

Hello. Here's a photo of an area next to the Albert Hall looking towards the lake in the heart of Canberra. Interesting mix of trees and plants that perhaps suggest a location elsewherre.
