Hello!

"Three Pictures"

A: Drawing

I did this pen and texta drawing in my maths exercise book as I was studying (read: "studying") for the HSC. As it turned out, I did well in the HSC... (and I like the drawing too!)

B: Dupli Casa

Frank Lloyd Wright once said: "No house should ever be on a hill or on anything. It should be of the hill. Belonging to it. Hill and house should live together each the happier for the other." German architect Jurgen Mayer's 2007 dwelling Dupli Casa does just this, spilling downwards intertwined with a deep bank of the German Neckar Valley. Interestingly, each level's floor plan is a rotation of the previous level, resulting in the unusual but ultra-modern appearance.

C: Mt. Fuji

This (slightly enhanced) photo was taken on the plane from Tokyo to Osaka in late January. Due to untimely illness we had to cancel our plans to visit the mountain during our holiday, but uncannily clear weather on the evening of our plane trip presented us with this spectacular view.
