Construction Sight

Mary Poppins Is Joining Us Today, Fellas

Sometimes you see an incongruous sight that just brings you to a dead halt. This shot was taken more than a year ago, during the middle stage of construction of the new Melbourne Recital Centre on the corner of Sturt Street here in South Melbourne.

I had just taken some shots from the roadside and I entered the site office to ask the supervisor if I could take some more photographs, when I noticed this red umbrella hanging from a hook beside the hard hats.

Now you know why we’re always encouraged to take the umbrella view.

(The Odd Shots concept came from Katney. Say "G'day" to her.)
