Marine Mural

Marine Mural Carey's Boatyard Picton.

On Sunday we went out for a walk to photograph the mural painted on the side of Carey's Boatyard on the waterfront in Picton. The building has been empty for a little while ,even though many quite large ships were built in here, there had been some talk of the building being demolished.
On Monday morning the bulldozers were busy at work bringi
ng down the whole building!
There was a date on the mural 1932 painted by C.W. Padday, so it has been gracing the walls for a long time. I imagine it must have been very much brighter and more colourful.

wow, you went to see it just in time. sad how things change. it's nice you captured it for one last look!

Louise said...

I guess it's lucky you went when you did. It may not be there the next time. It's a beautiful mural.

I hate it when landmarks, even unofficial ones, get destroyed.

Lowell said...

That is too bad. Perhaps there was good reason to tear down the mural (with the building) but too often the beauty is destroyed with the beast and we're all the poorer for it!

Thanks for visiting The Villages DP!

How sad they demolished it. The murals were lovely. Glad you got some photos of them and thanks for sharing them.

What wanton destruction of a work that has entertained passers by for70 years, they could at least taken the wall and installed it somewhere else.

It's too bad that they had to destroy such beautiful art work. They could have at least tried to save the murals! Some people have no consideration for anything.
Take care

Hi guys,

What online fanzines do you read and would recommend?

For all you punk people out there I recommend The Enough Fanzine. It is one of the first emo ezines on the web.

They have throusands of interviews from the most underground bands all over the world. Check them out online: [url=http://www.enoughfanzine.com]Enough Fanzine[/url]. Best of it all, they are 100% non-profit and just helping the scene!

Looking forward to your recommendations.

Cheers!

So I pulled out the old credit card -- bought myself a [url=http://www.ordio.com.au/products/Fatman-iTube-452-with-ValveDock.html]Fatman iTube Dock[/url] and I am very happy to say that I am an extremely happy customer. I actually listened to one at a friend's house a few months back and just couldn't get that sound out of my head because it impressed the heck out of me. I searched online everywhere I could think of for a great deal and finally found it at [url=http://www.ordio.com.au]Ordio[/url] in Westfield Bondi Junction. I phoned them first and asked a bunch of questions and everything was answered to my satisfaction so I went ahead and made the purchase. Dispatch was fast. Everything was perfect. I'm pretty darn happy and I'm playing it right now. Not sure if they dispatch outside of Australia but you won't be sorry if they do.

Very much worth it...
