Government House Gallery has been added.

Government House is the residence of the Governor General of the State (Lieutenant Governor? I will have to look this up).

The ground are open to the public for 2 hours each week, and we happen to catch one of the days.  Government House is almost in the centre of the city surrounded, as you can tell from some of the pictures by tall buildings all around.

The grounds are just stunning, except for the stage that they were putting up the day we were there getting ready for Australia Day I believe.  I tried to miss the iron framework in the pictures, but every now and then you can see just a little bit in the pictures.

It has been a while since I have been able to post up a Gallery.  I have a few ready, but just have not had the time.

This new gallery is of the local Primary (Elementary) School.  Joondaulp Primary School is just a 5 minute walk from where I live.

I originally wanted to be a little artistic and take pictures of the Full Moon from stratigic postitions around the school, but I was having trouble getting the right settings so I just moved on to taking low light images of the school itself.  (It might have had something to do with being out at 4 in the morning trying to get the pictures and I just was not able to function at that time) 

I am actually quite happy overall with how the pictures turned out.  I was thinking of blowing up and printing one of the better pictures, framing it, hanging it on the office wall and calling it “Pre-Chaos.”  The principal had a chuckle at the name, but I don't think the picture will get displayed.
