Down under. It took me a while to get this shot, because most
of the kids I watched in the pool couldn't do nice handstands (-:

George Street

Wake-board championships on the South Bank. Guys ride a (roughly
snowboard-shaped) board in a water canal. The rope is pulled by a motor.

Spectators

Street musicians, Queen Street Mall

West End

Workers, Adelaide Street

George Street. There were quite a few of those animal statues around

Parkour (free running) practice. Those guys were amazing.

The Gold Coast. The last photo I took before I lost my glasses in the sea.

From now on, my only clear view of the world was through the
dioptrically adjusted viewfinder of my dear camera (-:
This is Andrew Fletcher, we're making a "I was on the beach!" shot.

Oh, scientists on the beach. They are discussing new results.
The person on the right is Andris Ambainis, I don't know the other two.

Beach solitude.

John Cortese.

Panos Aliferis' talk

This is what people do in a conference, when the talk is not so interesting (-:
I don't remember whose talk it was, either. Also, I didn't have glasses
anymore, which my body associates with "time to go to sleep".

Thomas, Stephen and Yi-Kai on South bank

Stephen Jordan on Mt.Coot-tha.

Davies Park

Queensland State Library

Modern Art Gallery. This was a room that closed behind you.
Mirrors on all walls, water around the little island you stood on.
Plastic balls hanging from the ceiling in UV light. Weird, weird feeling.
Infinity...

Queensland Art Gallery. I have no idea why the man
is listening to the kids' stories while his kid is asleep (-:

Queensland Art Gallery. Ai Weiwei, dropping a Han-dynasty vase.

Museum of Modern Art.

Museum of Modern Art. This artist created a clothes-line for
kids mutated and disfigured by the american nerve gases in Vietnam.
Very disturbing to see a beautiful dress without hands openings...

Great workmanship, little trees made out of McDonalds bags by Yuken Teruya
