Photos of the 'hood!

This is an image that sprung up all over fences and walls in our area for a little while. Reminds me of animated films by Miyazaki - the Japanese director of "Spirited Away" and "My Neighbour Totoro" - which tend to have beautiful, sad giant monsters that appear only to the main children characters.

I'm amazed at how brackeny things, moss and grass can grow out of walls... but trees? Hadn't seen that before.

The photo below is a stencil of a monster from "where the wild things are" with the head of the AU$100 note stuck on top, with words from the same book. Photo compliments of Min (one of my suburb-roaming mum friends), as by the time I got around to taking a photo of this, someone had graffiti'd over it!
