Circulating Library

July 4, 2007

Another photograph fom my time visiting Daylesford and surrounds. This is taken in the township of Clunes, which has been the setting of a few movies in it's time. Apparently a lot of what seems to be old signage and shop fronts from the past are actually more recent than they seem, being left over from movies such as the most recent Ned Kelly tale.
I don't know about the circulating library, it looks quaint enough to actually be genuine. Distressed effect on the right of the film due to my rough handling pulling the tab through the rollers on my EE 100 polaroid camera no doubt!
Clunes had some really nice exhibitions for the Daylesford Foto Biennale I have mentioned in previous entries...

Camera: Polaroid EE 100, film 'choco 80' sepia toned, square format pack film.

LOL. Hi ziz, hows it going? Thanks for the visit. So you went to Daylesford too? It was great fun I thought. I wonder how many other Melbourne flickr-ites went?
...oh, and another meeting? Middle of school holidays, but I'll see if I can make it...
