These are some photos from 2003 in May Lane near the St. Peters Train station in Sydney. These areas were worked over regularly and these works were assuredly painted over a long time ago. I used a tripod and a trigger release to capture these - respect to the creators.

Two and a half years now, and more than 1800 unique images later, this project has turned into some kind of self-propelling monster. Will it ever end? Can it ever end in a seething metropolis of five million that changes almost every day? And we're only looking at a small part of it here. Anyone who has ever called the Inner West of Sydney home will have very different ideas on what, or even where, the Inner West is. And that's perfectly fine. Way it's ever been. But for the record, all the original photographs on this micro-blog have been snapped within the boundaries of this map. Cheers.

CAPRICCIO OSTERIA & BAR, Leichhardt

Cuisine: Italian

Sear your appetite into a heart-warming Italian meal with an Australian twist along the Italian strip in Sydney, Norton St Leichhardt. Ideal for a date night or small group catch-ups, the cosy and intimate setting is made even warmer with the friendly and helpful waitstaff. Start with house made focaccia which was incredible - I’ve never tasted such soft yet crunchy focaccia - no joke, it crumbled into my mouth. Continue with the ocean trout carpaccio; it’s freshness complimented the bread perfectly. Spread a dollop of creamy chicken liver pate onto accompanying crisp bread. 

Twirl into your choice of signature pastas presented in ideal portions, including the saffron fettuccine. Cooked al dente, the pasta was a little tougher in texture but worked really well with the tenderness of the lamb. This was my preferred selection as the flavours and textures were so well balanced. Mash into the beef gnocchi drowned in a tomato base sauce. Finally, sweeten your taste buds with a dessert, the dark chocolate cannoli was the perfect size and not too rich (it was great considering that I was pretty stuffed from the dinner already). Refresh your palate with a scoop of sorbet too - the pear and honeycomb was perfecto.

Newtown Tram Depot - Part 3

A small underground part of the depot is surprisingly well-lit and colourful from the layers of graffiti.  The missing floor panels allow light to shine in during the day. 

Despite the daylight, nature hasn’t quite gained the same stronghold as it has on the ground level.  It’s quiet and eerie and feels completely isolated given that civilisation and the noise of the city is only metres away.
