[Photo walk] Around the northern suburbs of Melbourne, part 11

After being stuck in back-to-back meetings for almost the entire workday (while working from home), I decided to go for a photo walk around sunset.

Nothing to see, just a totally normal inspection

Close-up photo of an old, faded, white-coloured, metal signboard that has been nailed into an electrical pole in front of a house. A notice printed on paper that was attached to this signboard has mostly been ripped off over the years. All that is visible of the sign is the phrase “normal inspection and”.

A normal inspection was carried out

Keep left on the bike path

Photo of a thin, flexible-plastic sign installed in the middle of a cycling and walking path running along a residential street. The sign reads, in all capital letters, “keep left” and it is warning cyclists of the electrical pole that is in the middle of the path a couple of metres ahead. The photo is taken from an angle that shows the setting sun peeking out from around the sign.

Shattered paint on a bike and walking path

Photo of a walking path onto which a while line has been painted using road line marking paint. Something heavy has landed on this sturdy, but brittle layer of paint because the paint from one section has shattered, with chips of paint spread around the painted-on line.

Scooped right out of the hedge

Photo of a tall hedge running along a low wall that marks the boundary of a house. It appears as if a big chunk of this hedge was simply scooped out of one end of the hedge because its outer leaves are missing and you can see right through the inside of the hedge. More likely there was another tall plant growing here and this hedge grew around it. That plant has recently been removed, which is why it looks like there is a hole in the hedge.
