Thien Phuoc Temple, Canley Heights

We visited Thich Phuoc Sanh today at Thien Phuoc Temple. It was the first time I've been back since retiring from council some two and a half years ago.
This house temple is even now bigger and filled with countless shrines to Buddha, Kwan Yin and more. He told us he was having trouble with the council which makes me so sad that such wonderful establishments are subject to Council harassment.
I promised the Abbot Walter and I will help him in whatever capacity we could. Will make some calls on Monday!

My new DSLR camera: Canon 1000d
After what seems like an enternity, I finally selected and bought a digital slr. Of course, I've not done a course... so it's all trial and error. These are the first pictures taken from it (admitedly very much touched up with photoshop elements!) And also am using pre-set settings giving depth of field.
Haven't quite learned how to adjust the white balance as yet, but I'm sure it will happen!

Beautiful Sydney
Last weekend for the first time in ages, it wasn't raining. In fact, it was a brillian sunny, almost cloudless day. Took these pictures at Circular Quay while we were waiting for a ferry to take us to the Biennale exhibitions at Cockatoo Island.
Sydney's just brilliant!
Huyen Quang Buddisht Temple, Bankstown
Was doing some archiving on my PC and came across this tv news report when Walter and I were fighting a campaign against Bankstown Council to save a local Buddhist Temple in 1999... I was so young!
