Cool Collector

Collector is a tiny hamlet just a little north of Canberra. Not much going on in that rural area, save for an unusual, unique, cool piece of folk art sculpture.

Behold the Dreamer's Gate. Kind of a mix of Watts towers and an HR Giger work. It was done by Tony Phantastes in the 1990s and, of course, left unfinished after a battle with the town council. Bureaucracies have no taste!

Semi abandoned things in open fields seems to be a theme of Collector. Old bus and an old flag.

Small town, small graveyards. And headstones.

Graves get flowers, whether plastic or under glass.

Another field, this time, for sport. Good luck to the mighty Bushrangers!
