Curls of Delight.
I was so taken with this particular flower. I chose it predominantly for its colour, but I did also notice the curls. Once it was in a vase on the table, I was eye level with this beauty and was fascinated by its curls. The shape and the way the colours follow the curves really…

The Hague & Madurodam
While in Amsterdam, I took a bus tour, from Amsterdam up to The Hague, and then Madurodam, then Rotterdam and finally Delft. Here are some photos from Madurodam (except the first one, which is The Peace Palace in The Hague). Madurodam is a miniature village – a little park, where they have built 1:25 scale…

Dior.
Happy Mother’s Day. Dedicating these photos to my mama 💕 I did love this collection while shooting them, and I still do. Plus the editing made me happy. But perhaps my post entitled Glamour is still my favourite so far. They certainly don’t look like tulips, do they? x desleyjane

Five Minutes with a Pale Pink Tulip – RegularRandom
Just two minutes for this shoot: Would you like to join in the RegularRandom crew? Here’s how: Version 1: 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 light that’s…

Ascension.
I took the Metro to Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and was struck by the immensity of this escalator. I had my iPhone (8 Plus) in my hand so I snapped a quick shot while stepping onto it. Here are a couple of different edits, which is your favourite? You can probably guess mine…. I love the…

Glamour.
Did I say I couldn’t pick a favourite? I lied. This. This is my favourite. So far. But I know what’s coming. x desleyjane

Beautiful Drama.
I love this one as well (honestly, I’m not sure I can pick a favourite). It began to rain lightly while we were photographing the tulips, and the temperature dropped, but it didn’t deter us, we had something new to photograph – capturing those droplets sitting on such vibrant petals. x desleyjane

New Website!
On one of my quiet days while holidaying in Amsterdam, I revamped my other website. I had planned to do this of course, and brought all the photos with me that I needed to add to the site. I use Squarespace, I find it to be a beautiful platform, and I’m now a Squarespace Circle…

Amsterdam in Living Colour.
This city is beautiful. I confess that I’ve used my iPhone a lot for photographs, because it’s so easy. And in bright light, it’s superb. But I never think to share my iPhone photos here, my habit is to only share the Olympus ones. But if I do that, we miss out on the more…

Changing the background – a new RegularRandom idea
What a difference a background change makes?! These first two sets of photos are taken in exactly the same location and conditions, but I have merely swapped out the placemat that sits under the vase. Firstly, I used a white placemat, then swapped it for a black one. I have been thinking about adding a…

Amsterdam in Mono
This beautiful city is full of colour, which I’ve shared on social media, and I’ll share here too, but I love the look of black and white and minimal colour as well. I feel like this trip is helping me to redefine my editing style and I’m enjoying it immensely. Here are a few of…

Floratuin Julianadorp 3
My third collection – you can see that the variety on display was amazing. Some would say that there is too much innovation, when a tulip no longer looks like a tulip, but I do love most of them. x desleyjane
