Walking to Work through Autumn Sunshine and Aroma of Coffee

            Some years back my wife and I worked at the opposite ends of the City of Melbourne. Her job gave her a car-parking spot. I got a lift with her to the east end of town and then walked westwards across the city, a different route every day, until I had done them all. The light was often benign and occasionally I would take a snap with one or other early model iPhone (with soft results here). 

This part of one route was along the Yarra's edge, Princes Walk approaching Princes Bridge. Up the embankment is an array of old bluestone warehouse vaults, now mainly repurposed for cruise bookings, bike hire, and eateries.

To my eyes, there is a strong three-dimensional illusion created by the perspective and shadows of the brick retaining walls of the embankment.
