Many self-declared “jazz lovers” would not recognise his name, nor have ever heard him…wittingly, at least.

15 inner suburban minutes

No “glamorous” or “exotic” destination – photos taken within one 15 minute period, within 15 minutes easy walk of our inner suburban home.

In 2020 West Australians have had it very much easier than have most other humans, even most other Australians.

Still, the kind of beauty pictured here remains easily accessible to just about any able bodied Australian.

Simply take a walk during “golden hour” – when the sun is within an hour or so of sunrise or sunset!

Barking mad: what tree’s skin is this?

As regular readers/viewers know, Pelican Yoga is partial to eucalypts’ bark, most especially when those trees shed and renew their skin.

I am no expert on particular species, but I can positively identify this one.

The relevant sign (next image) will let you know if your guess is correct; chances are excellent that you will “bark up” the wrong tree!
