The Colours of Maldon

When Pat Lawson-Black and Allan Kleiman first visited the charming and historic town of Maldon in Central Victoria, they were stuck by the vibrant colour they encountered at every turn.

This photographic essay was created to celebrate that visual excitement, and as an aide de memoir of their anniversary journey.

Pretty in pinks... 7

The colour leaps from an old painted mail box to a stripe set in concrete...

Maldon is all about texture, light, and the layers left by previous generations...

There is colour everywhere in Maldon: underfoot - and IN YOUR FACE! 15

From the curl of old tin and the swirl of tangled string to the confident swipe of paint from another era... 17

On the road home...18

The Colours of Maldon

Colour brings joy and immediacy to the simplest activity. Nothing beats a leisurely stroll, with camera in hand, through an historic township where residents, both old and new, embrace colour in their everyday life...
