The famous South Lawn underground car park at the University of Melbourne. This car park was used in the filming of Mad Max.
Built in 1971/72, this car park has aged as gracefully as myself. The design of the car park includes drainage from the ground above through the parabolic columns. Unique and controversial at the time.
I've visited here before but this time without my camera - had to use my phone, which forced me to think carefully about composition and lighting.

Not a traditional fence but a fence nontheless. Happy Fence Friday!
Marty and I visited the Rundle Place carpark again this weekend, and went up to different floors to look at the art.
A trip out to watch a local deer rut, was thwarted by a closed carpark, due to covid restrictions.
Instead we went to the nearby World Heritage Site.
There were plenty of these stunning birds enjoying the sanctuary afforded by the former monastic settlement.
Roll on the 1st when this barbaric and antiquated sport is brought to a well overdue close.

I'll be seeing more of this carpark as I'll be going there three days a week for UV treatment for my skin allergy over the next 4 weeks. I have to get up a lot earlier to drive North to the clinic, and then all the way South to my workplace.
This change in my daily routine was enough to break my daily Flickr posting and commenting. Sorry my dear Friends for neglecting your photos recently, I'll start visiting again tonight after work.
I haven't been out shooting any architecture images since early March as I haven't been able to get into London because of the lockdown. But about a month ago I was in Coventry for a day as my son, who is at uni there, went to collect his things from the flat he'd been sharing with 2 other lads. Apparently, and I say apparently because I refused to accompany him into the flat and I don't know for sure, but the idea was for the 3 of them to work together to clean the place before they all departed. How well that went I have no idea. Let's just say I am resigned to losing the deposit we paid on the flat and leave it at that.
So while the 3 of them cleaned I went out and walked around Coventry with my camera. Hooray, there is actually architecture in Coventry. Perhaps not the most inspiring of architecture as the place was bombed in the war and a lot of it is post-war architecture. But there was enough there for me to explore happily for 3 or 4 hours.
This car park is very close to where my son was staying and I liked the clean lines of it. In fact this is two images, set side by side on a white background, with one of images flipped horizontally so that the light in the centre matches. I like the abstract nature of it but I also like that it is still recognisable as a car park.
