Black and white photo of a vintage railway station with timber platform, ornate ironwork, and historic train carriages.

A ‘Gift Shop’ sign hangs above the platform, evoking a nostalgic, early 20th-century atmosphere.

Black-and-white photo of a large, weathered grain silo complex with multiple cylindrical concrete units and a rectangular structure on top. 

The building shows visible stains and age, framed by trees in the foreground and a partly cloudy sky above. The monochrome palette adds a dramatic, timeless feel to the industrial scene.

Two kinds of moss growing in the crook of a tree

Two kinds of moss growing in the crook of a tree

I brought you some #moss for #MacroMonday. If you squint it looks more like a ravine than a crook in a tree.

A serene park scene with evenly spaced, lush green trees standing over a gravel path and manicured grass.

The overcast sky casts a soft, diffused light, enhancing the tranquil mood. In the distance, a fence and utility pole hint at the edge of suburbia, while the trees dominate the foreground with their dense foliage and quiet presence.

A historic Uniting Church stands beneath a clear blue sky, showcasing Gothic Revival architecture. Its tall steeple is topped with a cross, and the light yellow facade is accented by white trim and a red roof. 

Intricate woodwork and stained glass windows add character. A sign reads “Uniting Church,” and a lawn banner promotes “Easter Services.” 

The grounds are tidy, and the image is credited to Kev Peirce in the bottom left corner.

Black and white coastal scene with seaweed strewn across a quiet beach. Gentle waves lap the shore beneath a dramatic sky filled with wispy, textured clouds.

A long pier stretches into the distance, pointing toward a low hill or island on the horizon. The image is signed “Kev Peirce” in the bottom left corner.

A moody beachscape under a brooding sky. Pale sand stretches toward a calm ocean, where gentle waves meet a rocky breakwater. 

Two navigational markers stand sentinel in the distance. Above, dark clouds churn, hinting at an approaching storm.

The scene balances serenity with tension, evoking quiet anticipation.

Monochrome photo of a roadside sign marking a shared zone with a 10 km/h speed limit.

The sign includes icons of a pedestrian and a car, emphasizing co-use of the area. Surrounded by dense foliage, the setting suggests a quiet, possibly residential or park-adjacent zone where caution and courtesy are key.

A single bird rests on the peak of a stone cross mounted above a circular window on a weathered rooftop.

The soft gradient of the sky—yellow bleeding into gray—casts a tranquil mood over the scene, evoking silence and reflection.

A grassy lawn stretches across the foreground. On the right, a shaded walkway with benches adds a calm, contemplative touch. The monochrome palette highlights texture and timelessness.

The building is painted in muted blue-gray tones, with white geometric detailing framing the doorway. "Bank of New South Wales" is displayed prominently above in clean serif lettering, evoking a sense of permanence and tradition.

The design blends classical elegance with regional charm.

A long wooden pier stretches into a calm, pale sea under an overcast sky. The beach transitions from sandy tones to grassy patches, with a line of trees on the right lending depth.

The muted light and soft textures evoke a quiet, contemplative mood—nature holding its breath.

The atmosphere is nostalgic and dramatic, with diffused sunlight filtering through the cloud cover, emphasizing the aged elegance of the lamp.

A black and white photograph showing two large, weathered grain silos in Kyancutta, South Australia. The one on the left is prominent in the foreground, with its heavily rusted, corrugated metal surface showing years of use.

A smaller, taller tower with a raised cabin at the top stands behind it, connected by an inclined conveyor belt structure. The sky is partially cloudy, and the base of the silos is partially obscured by trees.

The image is watermarked with the name "Kev Peirce" in the bottom-left corner.

A muted, sepia-toned photograph of a single seagull standing on a dark, square post in the middle of a calm, reflective body of water.

The water appears to be at low tide, with subtle ripples on the surface. The seagull is facing slightly to the right, and its reflection is visible below it in the water. The bottom left corner of the image is watermarked with the name "© Kev Peirce".
