The snow fell against the limbs where we sat; Nothing but the occasional whirring of one of our sentinel’s lens defoggers breaking the crisp air.

Vincent Lefevre – Immense and magnificent mix of mechs and melancholic creatures with incredible detail and little surprises in each work.
Centro Verso – Instagram follow of the week. Tom Blachford captures architecture like no one else. Latest shots of Melbourne at night. More on his website.
