What better way to see what is old and new in a city than to walk around.
Fiona and I started with breakfast in the mall - nothing fancy just a mug of double shot coffee and raisin toast - but excitement moment - this is the first time we had our raisin toast served with veggies - Fiona got lettuce and cucumber and I scored carrot - brilliant!!

We rediscovered the old city hall that was demolished by cyclone Tracey on Christmas eve 1974. The preseved ruins have aged beautifully with some additional aging of the ruin taking place.

All the photos were taken with the iPhone so I have altered a few just for good measure.
Doorway altered using FX Colour - Sketch - charcoal plus a little negative gamma.
Window altered using FX Colour - Sketch - charcoal colour.
Fractured - nail detail altered using FX Colour - Colour Fantasy plus negative gamma. Really like how the Colour Fantasy filter and gamma has brought out the unseen touches of rust or enhance it by adding them.
