Sandstone puzzle
We went for a short walk along the ocean today. It is no big secret that I like rock faces and formations. While I was looking for some interesting textures and colours I have noticed this sandstone puzzle at my feet. I thought it was rather interesting composition of sandstone pieces - lots of complimentary lines and curves. It looked to more to me as human designed mosaic then a random mother nature rock crack.

Watchful eyes
This couple of private security guards were watching very carefully the crowd passing by. Smartly dressed in their suits they looked as any business man in the city. Only the ear piece with the familiar spiral cable and their behaviour gave away their profession.

Intolerable tolerance
This group of protesters tried hard to make themselves noticeable amongst the pilgrims in the Hyde Park. Their message? “We have nothing against Catholics… There is no God… it is not a sin to be gay… it is not against religion to use condom”.
Media reported later on there were heated exchanges between the protesters and World Youth Day attendees. Yes, some people took offence and exchanged words with the protesters. However, what was not reported or shown on TV was the fact the young pilgrims turned their backs on the protesters and simply walked away, ignoring them completely. After brief moment even media moved on.
