A
handful of images of life in Collie. A poor attempt to
capture Collie's extraordinary morning light in winter; the
start of the Collie-Donnybrook cycle race in Throssell
Street, Collie's main through road; country humour in
Bumfire Chilli, a regular at the weekend Railway Station
Market; the beauty of Minninup Pool; the Premier Hotel in
Forrest Street, the main shopping area; a magnificent tree
in Soldiers Park, on the banks of the river in central
Collie; a favourite picnic spot on the Collie River just
minutes from town; a class of schoolchildren enjoying the
river to the full; the Hotham Valley Express, free blues
music and street market during the annual Griffin Festival;
and spirited bidding for land during the annual Land Grab,
where building blocks have been bought for $4,000 or so. |
