Adlayed@Night

A few months ago, as we wandered around, I took some night time shots around town. (By the way for youse out-of-towners the place is called Ad-Layed or Ad-Laid, Not Ad-el-ayed or Ad-el-Aid. If you pronounce it with the 'e' it shows you're definitely not a local ((and possibly immune therefore from being the target of bizarre serial killers)) ) Three of the pictures are of the new law courts building in Victoria Square and one is of the interior of a bar in an old pub on King Wiliam Street, The Crown and Sceptre. The photos are bordered by rusty galvanised iron - because.

Coloured glass panels make up a significant proportion of the law courts building's facade.

A water feature and the state's colours (red, yellow and blue) adorn the building's entrance

This helmet like structure in copper adorns one side of the building. Perhaps the former owner was a very large Greek warrior with three set of eyes

I think this set of shelving was available at Freedom. Here they look very chic against a nicely lit mirror
