Government House is the official residence of the governor of Western Australia, situated in the central business district of Perth, the state capital. It was built between 1859 and 1864, in the Jacobean Revival style.
Government House is located on St Georges Terrace (Perth's main thoroughfare), sitting on the same block as Council House and the Supreme Court buildings. The site has been used by governors since the establishment of the Swan River Colony in 1829; the current building is the third to have served that purpose on the site. The buildings and gardens of Government House are of exceptional heritage significance, being listed on the Western Australian Register of Heritage Places and classified by the National Trust. They are regularly opened for public viewing.
Description
The building is a two-storey mansion designed by Edmund Henderson in the early Stuart or Jacobean Revival style, set on 32,000 square metres (7.9 acres) of English gardens in the centre of the Perth business district, between St George's Terrace and the Swan River. The unique architectural character of the building is characterised by the use of stonework and bonded brickwork, incorporating square mullioned windows, decorated gables and ogival capped turrets. The attenuated gothic arcading at ground floor level derives from another form of Victorian Revival expression Fonthill Gothic. The building has 16 rooms on the ground floor and 25 on the first floor. According to the Western Australian Register of Heritage Places Assessment, Government House is a "unique example of a Victorian Gentleman's residence" set in landscaped gardens with mature plantings and a number of commemorative trees.

The Dutch masterpieces gallery at the Metropolitan Museum of Art was buzzing with excitement. The security guard seemed to have her eyes on me as I studied "Girl With a Pearl Earring". Suddenly the guard walked toward me with a stern expression, but instead of telling me to step back from the painting, she asked if I had the time. As soon as I said, "it's 3:05," another guard came and took her place. I guess it was time for a break.

If you look for all my photo stream you will note that I do not have a lot of portrait or picture showing persons. I do it only when I consider I get something special. This man is a security guard at the Imperial Palace, Tokyo, Japan. Usually they always look straight ahead keeping a serious and livid look. I directed my camera right to him and waited for at least five minutes. I knew that he saw me with my camera... waiting for a good picture. He knew that I was trying to get a picture of him. After a while, without moving his head, he turned lightly his eyes in my direction for half of second and then I have seen his lips moving up a little bit showing me this very delicate smile. Then I got this picture.
Si vous regardez mon album photo, vous allez noter que je ne fais pas beaucoup de portrait ou de photographies montrant des personnes. Je le fais seulement lorsque je trouve quelque chose de spécial. Cet homme est un gardien de sécurité au Palais Impérial à Tokyo, Japon. Habituellement, les gardiens regardent droit devant eux et conservent en tout temps un regard sérieux et livide. J'ai dirigé mon appareil photo vers lui et j'ai attendu au moins cinq bonnes minutes. Je savais qu'il me voyait avec mon appareil photo... attendant le bon moment pour le photographier. Il savait que j'essayais de faire une bonne photo de lui. Après quelques minutes, gardant sa tête droit devant, il a tourné légèrement ses yeux en ma direction pour peut-être une demie seconde,. Alors j'ai vu ses lèvres se relever très légèrement laissant filtrer un très délicat sourire. J'ai capté le moment.
