Capturing Raindrops
I did Photo101 in November 2014 and one of the prompts was “Water”. I posted a photo of water dripping from a tap where I caught the individual droplets in the frame. It was quite a popular post, you can see it here. This weekend has been a stormy and rain-filled one here in Brisbane,…

Dancing Bits and Bobs
For today’s experiment, you can have a lot of fun and you can make a lot of mess. I had fun working out the best things to use here. The original experiment that I remember from when I was at school, used sultanas. The book that I wrote a chapter for said to use spaghetti.…

Please come and take a look at some fabulous photographs from some die-hard photographers. Taken with my Olympus OMD EM5, with the 17mm lens (35mm…

Looking Sideways, Looking Up
These are photos of the ceiling of an elevator in a hotel in Perth. I find the geometry in these photos quite fascinating. I find it interesting how much money is spent on the inside of elevators. They are just a small container to transport people for less than one minute, and yet some of…

Sydneyside
I was in Sydney for work last week and one night, it was almost 7 before I got back from work, so did some googling and found a great spot to see the city, the bridge and even the Opera House. The light was fading and a storm was rolling in, so it was quite…

A Piece of Nepal in Brisbane
While out shooting for my March Changing Season’s post, I spent some time at the Nepalese Pagoda. This was the Kingdom of Nepal’s contribution to World Expo 88 which was held here in Brisbane. The Pagoda has become a permanent fixture within the lush rainforest walk at Southbank. According to visitbrisbane “it features 80 tonnes…

Walls of my World
For this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge, we are tasked with photographing Walls: Share an image of a wall that reveals something about a place, people, or you. Here are some walls that I’ve discovered recently… This hardware store seems to be using all available wall space for advertising. Some kind of desperation? This wall is…

Long Way Down
Playing with perspective, focus and depth of field are some of my favourite things. This photo is going into Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic, a place for all die-hard photography addicts. x desleyjane
