The Flowers of Brunswick East (29)
This is a super-tiny flower, so delicate, growing through and along a fence, forming a wall of deep green leaves and these tiny white blossoms. So pretty, and so paper-thin. x desleyjane

Five Minutes with a Pink Posey – RegularRandom
On Friday morning, I stubbornly pulled out my camera to take some photos of this gorgeous pink posey, sent to me by the lovely Lucile, all the way from Amsterdam to Melbourne (courtesy of FlowersAcrossMelbourne which is also FlowersAcrossAustralia). It’s my first time holding the camera since surgery 10 days prior. It wasn’t easy, but I…

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…

Surgery today.
Just a quick note to say thank you for all your comments recently and for thinking of me and my silly old shoulder. I’m heading into surgery this morning for the repair so I’ll probably be away from here for a few days. I have posts scheduled to go up every second day with my…
