Mid-Summer Portrait 3
As soon as this baby arrived at the Midsummer Faerie Rade, the family was swamped with photographers. Who could blame them? How cute is she?! ๐ x desleyjane

Melbourne Street Art 2
Some more shots from my walk through Melbourne’s famous laneways. I would have liked to have caught the chef looking at me, but I like the framing here anyway. I also enjoyed seeing some of the “words” within the graffiti as well. x desleyjane

Mid-Summer Portrait 2
Most of the Rade-goers went all out with their costumes and make-up and this young lady also went out of her way to pose for us. I really loved editing the above black and white portrait, but I also love the dress, so thought I’d show you a colour shot as well. Again, I…

Mid-Summer Portrait 1
These portraits were taken at the Midsummer Faerie Rade in Melbourne in 2016 (a couple of weekends ago). Taken with my Olympus OMD EM5 with the 45mm portrait lens (90mm equivalent). Here’s another shot in colour, so you can better view her intricate makeup: Most people at the Rade were dressed in costume and were…

Rainy Day Optimism
One of things I love about my new apartment in Melbourne is the terrace off my living area. It’s a very large tiled space which overlooks the east side of the city. I have plans for it, but a few days after I moved in, I hurt my back and two weeks later it hasn’t…

Sarina Beach
This post was written before New Year’s Eve and I somehow neglected to post it… Finally it’s raining and the weather is much cooler, it’s beautiful. The only sacrifice is the loss of blue skies, but I love a good dark cloud, so I’m ok with it. We took a drive while my brother was…

Shoal Point Beach.
It has been so dry here in Mackay. Well maybe that’s not the right way to put it. I’ve mentioned in some comments about how humid it isย here – it’s usually about 30 degrees Celsius by 9am and sits at between 70 and 75% humidity. There’s a breeze off the ocean, but it’s a hot…

The Trek North
I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and holiday season so far. I did the long trek north in the car with my Dad a few days before Christmas. It was 1,064km and took us a little over 13 hours (see the map at the end of this post for a good idea of…

Angles of Pink
I’ve been asked by a couple of people how I get this very white background in my photos so I’ve written a tutorial on this, which you can find at Image Reboot #7. This is one of the buds I picked for my Trio post for the DP Weekly Photo Challenge. I had it in…
