A Journalist Never Reveals His Sauces
Photographs copyright: DAVID McMAHON
This is the beauty of digital technology, because I only just shot these frames, less than an hour ago. I was driving down Waverley Road here in Melbourne, when I noticed a Nando's delivery truck parked outside a newsagent. I immediately indicated, swung into a nearby parking spot - they can be hard to find on this stretch. I walked over to the driver of the van to ask his permission to photograph the van to highlight the bright colours and the slogan for Nando's famous Peri-Peri sauce. The first frame is a tight shot of the side of the van, while the second is a three-quarter frame to show you the van's surroundings. And for all my overseas readers - the Herald Sun, The Australian and The Age are all newspapers.
FOOTNOTE: Must have been a Peri Mason mystery!

Hi Keshi,
Thank you. I'm glad you liked the shot. As you can see, I really like using a tight frame when I compose a shot.
Glad you liked the post. Thanks for getting back so quick.
Take care. Be strong. Be grateful for the fleeting lives that touch us all. Been there, done that, so I know how you feel.
I wish you strength.

I'm male so I have to say it, this just reminds me of that advert with the stripper mother... anyone not from Australia yes its really as abstract as it sounds.
Ah, Popemeister,
That ad copped a lot of flak in the `Letters to the Editor' columns here in Victoria.

ah well!! i was more interested in the faint cornetto picture there!! :)
Better that it be peri-peri, than beriberi....
You put a set of wheels on it, and I'll look at it, that's for sure!(One can only imagine what he might come-up with now, given the incentive!)
Just to let ya' know I slid-thru, and am now sliding back out, to return in a couple more...!
Hi Sam,
Cornettos are the prince of ice creams!
Keep smiling

G'day Brian,
Man, you're in there with those one-liners so quick! That's why I'm such a big fan of yours!
Keep smiling

Ah, Bruno,
You sure have made my eyes light up now!
By the way, you might be interested in the shots I took of not one but two Rolls-Royces - I think the post was called `Opera of the Phantom'
Keep smiling
