Repair, recover and renew at Queen Victoria Market

On 14th of May, we held a combined street and APS Photo Walk at Queen Victoria Market in the early morning. The outing started at 8:30 with 10 very keen members and their partners.

Ken Barnett - Very Busy working together Sim Chong - Happy Sim Chong - Moving Stephen Hilton - Donuts all round

The market was already busy and buzzed with energy. In order to reflect the theme “Repair, recover and renew”, each of us tried our best capturing the positive and optimism of the future and people moving forward.

Stephen Hilton - The fishmonger Angela McLeod - Crazy Happy Angela McLeod - Coffee is good Angela McLeod - Cheesy Grin

We met after 2 hours at one of our member Anthony Yap’s Common Ground Cafe and was treated with a surprise model shoot. Thank you Sim Chong for co-hosting the event in Ian’s absence.

More photos can be viewed in the outing gallery.

APS Photo Walk – Saturday 14th May 2022

From 8:30am to 11:30am, followed by brunch or lunch at Anthony’s Cafe (Common Ground Cafe, 225-229 Victoria St, West Melb)

Leaders: Sim Chong and Jennifer Sui
