2119 Beecroft

Beecroft is a quaint leafy suburb that has a quintessential English village feel to it. Why Beecroft you may ask? Well, it's as good a starting point as any! Arriving early in the morning, there was already a strong community atmosphere as we made our way through the stalls and attractions of Arden's annual fair. Following that, a stroll past the cafes and shops into the dizzying world of lawn bowls as the competitors flexed their [arthritic] joints and aimed for the jack!

  2. I'm happy with how things have started, let's hope the other suburbs are just as photogenic... in their own unique way of course! :)

  3. Improvements are subtle but better, the white boarder looks great. The photos are great too. I love the bulbs verses (is that a word) blossom.
