Maldon Toolshed

Maldon, Country Victoria, Australia

Maldon was Australia's first 'notable' town, and it has been retained in the condition it was in the 1850's. It is best-known for the 19th century appearance the town has maintained despite the passage of over a hundred years since its Gold Rush days. The town was declared a "notable town" in 1966 by the National Trust of Victoria, who explained that:

The township displays overall historical and architectural importance, particularly in its gold town buildings. The significance lies in the variety of building styles, and the area of mining is of interest with one mine still open to the public.

While walking back to our accomadation, I stumbled accross this tattered, old and abandoned wooden toolshed, and noticed the brilliant textures brought about by time and weather.

The image is in black and white to emphasise the textures of the shed.

Tools

Nikon D70 | Nikkor 18-70mm | ISO 200 | f/10 | 38mm | 1/400 sec
