Brisbane Wheel in Winter

2015_July-33

The Wheel.

I felt the need to show you our wheel separately this month.

I was at Southbank for my recent Changing Seasons shoot, and I really loved the sky behind the wheel as the sun was setting.

These were taken with my Olympus OMD EM5 camera.

Off they go to Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic – come take a look 🙂

    Very nice series with emphasis on lines. The sky is an added plus.

    Great angles on the wheel – and great use of a sunset sky. A change of blog design too. Have I taken a while to notice??

        Yes, it just appeals to me for some reason. But they’re all good.

          Oh thank you!! I spent ages trying to find one. I might do a few random ones to see what works best. But thanks, I am pretty happy with the flowers, even though they’re just weeds 😉

            Weeds are the heartiest. They are the ones that survive what comes their way.

    Very beautiful! There is something extra cool about wheels. Hard to believe it’s winter there when it is 100 degrees here!
