Lobster House sits on the escarpment above the
beautiful house where we stayed with Roger Hayward
and Jean Edwards at Pretty Beach NSW |
Above Lobster Beach is this unique house built by one of Australia's finest photographers, David Moore (1927-2003). Designed by architech Ian McKay and built in the early 1970's, the house sits on a rocky outcrop on a ridge, surrounded by twisted angophoras. To the west it overlooks Broken Bay and to the north it takes in Brisbane Waters The land to the south beyond the outcrop is part of the Bouddi National Park near Gosford in New South Wales.
"Moore recalled that he 'didn't want the house to interfere with the landscape'. He considered the land to be more precious than anything that might be built on it."

The silhouettes and reflections of gum trees on
a glass table captured my attention. (Click image) |

I came across a collection of 1953 copies of
Melbourne's 'The Age' Newspaper. Just 60
years ago Delivery Vans looked like this.
