Well, it used to be a penal colony, but at least we're allowed to take pictures and write our thoughts...

Praharn

We found this 2nd hand shop by accident, while strolling down Chapel St. Its stunning collection truly amazed us, and we only had a chance to shoot a couple of pictures before we were asked to quit. If you're ever in this side of the city (and the equator) don't miss this 20th century piece of history. Sorry about the poor quality, it all had to be very sneaky.





















עייפה בובה זהבה
ועייף מאוד הדוב
הצללים לחדר באו
לוחשים לי לילה טוב...


















This couple is just creepy. With their Neon glow and fake smiles they looked like nuclear hell mannequins.


















This one was outside another shop but it's still eclectically cool.
















A beautiful graffitti, one of many around the city
















Not the same occasion but a nice shot of a Melbourne cafe scene. The coffeeshop, by the way, is Max Brener, an extremly popular spot in the city - Hey, we're really good in making coffee in the Middle East!

This guy was trying to impersonate an American preacher and was calling people to wake up before the arrival of an 'environmental apocalypse'. He was very funny and he had a hard time sticking to his role.
