Libraries might be my favourite places but sometimes it seems they could be just a little unhealthy. At least, I'm attributing my present bout of not quite wellness to my sojourn in the library on Saturday; there seemed to be too many people in close proximity coughing and sneezing and an air conditioning system that perhaps wasn't quite coping.
At least, that seemed like a reasonable explanation.
On the other hand, the weather bureau reported the onset of the red-yellow dust which blows over from the mainland ... perhaps that was it.
Either way, I had to get to work one way or another so off I went. And looking out the window, the atmosphere suggested the dust clouds. It cast a particular hue over the water and sky most of the day...
Watching the changes in the light over the bridge was one indicator...

And then the moon |
At the end of the day, I'm still not sure whether to blame the weather, the dust or the library. Perhaps it was all of the above.
