One Photo, Three (Four) Ways
On Melbourne Cup Day, I had lunch with friends and then we went for a wander along Brunswick Street in Fitzroy. I’ve always liked the little shops on this eclectic and busy street. This day was no exception. We discovered a real gem – an art supplies store with the most beautiful papers, stationery, cards…

The Flowers of Brunswick East (26)
These red roses were so red that they almost looked black in certain light. Actually some of the petals are very, very dark. It’s such a rich, blood-red colour. x desleyjane

Another strange little plant, I won’t begin to guess this one, but I find it quite fascinating. Olympus OMD EM5, 60mm macro, good morning. x desleyjane

Five Minutes with a Snail – Regular Random (and a surgery update)
A few nights before surgery (stay tuned for an update on the surgery at the bottom of this post), I spotted this little snail making his way up the glass door to my balcony. So I grabbed my camera and spent five minutes with him for this week’s RegularRandom. After his five minutes was up,…

The Flowers of Brunswick East (24)
I assume this is a poppy?! It’s so cute, and the petals so papery. A very vibrant orange, and crinkly. x desleyjane

The Flowers of Brunswick East (23)
Is this that funny little flower that’s meant to look a bit rude? It was difficult to photograph – about knee height, growing through a fence, but I just adore that little hairy set of buds! How sweet?! And the flowers are quite cute too. Tiny, as usual! Sore shoulder, as usual. Olympus macro, as…

Five Minutes with a Thorny Flower Crown – RegularRandom
This week’s RegularRandom features a succulent that I have photographed before, for one of my first RegularRandom posts, here. Here are the rules: choose a subject or a scene spend five minutes photographing it – no more! try to not interfere with the subject, instead see it from many angles, look through something at it, change…

The Flowers of Brunswick East (21)
This was actually two bushy trees planted very close together, so the flowers intermingled between all the bushy leaves and stems. Such an intricate flower, in two beautiful colour combinations. Olympus OMD EM5, 60mm macro, early morning, handheld, wishing for more sleep. x desleyjane

The Flowers of Brunswick East (20)
This very red flower demanded some attention. It is so vibrant, quite small, but definitely catches the eye. Of course, I don’t know what it is, I’m sure you can help me! x desleyjane

One Wall, Three (Four) Ways.
Last week, I posted some cute edits of a letterbox against a brick wall. Here is the same wall and letterbox, but taken from a much wider angle. The day was missing any definition in the sky unfortunately. I decided to give it a treatment similar to the letterbox with different presets. Here is the original…
