Another Brisbane (Post) Sunset
Just a quick one to show you the light gathering above the horizon about 20 minutes after sunset the other night. Just glorious. For Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic – swing on by and visit us sometime. These photos were taken with my Olympus OMD EM5 with the 17mm (35mm equivalent) lens. x desleyjane

Roy G. Biv (WPC 2)

Roy G. Biv (WPC 1)
My timing seems to be quite bad. This week’s photo challenge (ROY G. BIV) is all the colours of the rainbow (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet) and last week I published a post of some Rainbow Roses, which would have fitted this theme perfectly. So, I pottered about at home this morning and came…

Secret
She leaned against the railing and stared out at the darkness of the ocean, the waves whipping against the side of the ship, foaming the water so that she could almost make out stripes of white, turquoise and deep, deep blue. She watched the foam disappear from view as the ship slipped through the water…

Getting Perspective (Eclectic Corner #12.3)
Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes, but when you look back, everything is different… – CS Lewis. For Justine’s Eclectic Corner #12 – Perspective (Quote). Why this quote? If we just keep going through life, doing the things we do day by day, we don’t really notice how we are growing…

Rainbow Roses
I was at a florist’s recently and she pointed out her “Rainbow Roses”. These stunning roses are created in Colombia. In fact, she told me that most large roses for sale in bouquets in Australia are flown in weekly from Colombia ! These rainbow roses are made by splitting the stems and placing each part into…

Scientist Spotlight – Moana Simpson
This is my second interview for my Scientific Reasoning feature, designed to give us some insight into the lives of some of today’s scientists. The first interview can be found here – you will notice that many of the questions are the same – I wanted a fairly even playing field, so we can get a…

Image Reboot #3
Welcome again to Image Reboot, a joint feature between Lucile (bridging lacunas) and myself (musings of a frequent flying scientist). Lucile asked me if I would write a monthly feature outlining what I’ve learnt about editing my photographs which I was honoured to do. I use LightRoom 5, I need to upgrade to version 6…

Anger
The door slammed and with the sound, another piece of her heart shattered. It had been this way for weeks. He had always had a temper, but it had been playful, easily ignored and she hadn’t thought anything of it. Until recently. Now his mood had changed. His temper was dark and brooding, always festering. She…

Perspective Matters (Eclectic Corner #12.2)
It’s all about how You see the world, whether up Or down, it matters… For Justine’s Eclectic Corner #12 – Perspective Written. Justine gave us free reign to write whatever we wish, so I went with a teeny tiny haiku. And this photo is going into Lucile’s Photo 101 Rehab Clinic, it joins the photos…

Senior Video Blogger
I took this photo for Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab clinic. I was shooting the sunset over Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. It was pretty quiet, just a few people watching the sunset. Just as the light was fading, a busload of senior citizens arrived and they all came over to check out the sunset.…
