Mandy6513 in reply to Blackbird6

Then perhaps you should consider showing them properly and it's most definitely sellable . Your work reminds me of David Wilson the Welsh photographer

Very arty, love it.

Work away on it I hope you get the results you want from it πŸ’žπŸ’žπŸ’ž

Blackbird6 in reply to illawarra

Thankyou illawarra sounds quite an Ozzy name πŸ’žπŸ’ž

illawarra profile image
illawarra

Hello Blackbird6. Yes it is an Ozzy name. Illawarra is a coastal region south of Sydney. It comes from an aboriginal name and has the meaning of "pleasant place near the sea" or "high place near the sea. It is a beautiful part of Oz.

Blackbird6 profile image
Blackbird6 in reply to illawarra

Awww nice to know the meaning of where you are .

I have family on Perth Sydney and had a brother in Taz who passed away a few years back .

Never visited but would love to have seen it πŸ’žπŸ’ž

illawarra profile image
illawarra in reply to Blackbird6

Blackbird6 you have a lot of connection with Oz. What a shame that you have not had a chance to visit. It is a long distance to travel, so it is not easy for all to do. Mind you it is a big country. I have never been to Perth.

I am sure though with family here you have seen lots of pics of places here.

Nice to chat with you Blackbird6. Thank you.

I noticed the train track running along side of the pier, does it still run ?

Blackbird6 profile image
Blackbird6 in reply to Izb1

Yes it still runs its 200 years old and the most rickety thing ever takes you to the end where the small ferry takes you across to town.

They have been doing charity nights to save the pier as it keeps getting threatened with closure 😌

Izb1 profile image
Izb1 in reply to Blackbird6

Oh! how fab is that, I can imagine its a thrill x

Blackbird6 profile image
Blackbird6 in reply to Izb1

I enjoy taking my grandaughter on the train and then walk the pier back out over the water it's a lovley area πŸ’žπŸ’ž

It’s not often that a black and white is more interesting than a colour photo.

You really have captured the essence there Blackbird6, well done, again πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰

Blackbird6 in reply to Whitechinchilla

Chilla thankyou so much I really do like this one myself and that's not being modest I spend most of the time saying that's crap and press delete but I'm learning more each day and it will be forever and a day before I'm happy with a full set of pics πŸ’žπŸ’žπŸ’ž
