    PhotoRehab Wrap Up #19 and New Challenge #20

    WE’RE BAAAACK! So sorry for the short break in transmission, but we are back now for the last few weeks of the year. Cover Makeover is the our themed feature of the Photo Rehab Clinic, created by me and Lucile from Bridging Lacunas. Every week we give a new prompt, and our participants go to town,…

  • Bee Detailed.

    Bee Detailed.

    I posted some macro shots of a bee that I found recently. I went back to take another look at the photos and went through the ones that I had not yet edited and decided to crop in and take a look at the detail that I was able to capture. I think he’s actually…

  • Transition in Pink

    Transition in Pink

    Someone asked me today why I have pink hair (yes I have pink hair). It was a more difficult question than I thought. Why DO I have pink hair? I was born with fairly average light brown hair. I have had some form of blonde in my hair for about ten years now and I…

  • iPhriday – GO for the Wheel

    iPhriday – GO for the Wheel

    I was at a conference this week (called ANFF – The Home of Tomorrow’s Entrepreneurs) and it was located at the Brisbane Exhibition and Convention Centre which is on the OTHER side of the wheel. It was interesting to get a shot from the other side for a change. This is an iPhone shot, I’m…

  • Bye Biscus. I’ll miss ya!

    Bye Biscus. I’ll miss ya!

    I posted photographs of a random hibiscus flower last week. It fell off the table and was investigated by Gidget and then I promptly forgot about the physical flower while I spent my time editing the photos. Today (almost a week later), I happened to find it under my outdoor dining table, so I picked…

  • iPhriday – Selfie

    iPhriday – Selfie

    On my last flight, I forgot to bring a book or a screen so I did what all hip young gals do and took a selfie 😋 But I tried for something a little different – this is me on almost every flight: I’m joining Lisa at GrayDaysandCoffee, sharing a smartphone photo each Friday. I…

  • Of Wasps and Bees

    Of Wasps and Bees

    I found this little guy on my windowsill and transferred him to my white side table. A simple process you might think, but I refused to touch it and was too lazy to get up so I used my lens cap instead. Which wasn’t really appropriate but it worked eventually. I thought it was a…

  • Hi Biscus! How are ya?

    Hi Biscus! How are ya?

    I was wandering around my backyard one afternoon when I spotted this hibiscus flower. I don’t know where there is a hibiscus plant nearby, I certainly don’t have one, but there it was, already cut and waiting to be photographed. I took it to my glass top table to get some shots.  I’ve had an…

  • Fiery Victory

    For The Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Victory  :  In your photo this week, focus on the win, the victory. I struggled with this one. While I’ve definitely had victories, I can’t say I’ve really photographed them. This is kind of a silly one, but I love the photos that came out of it. We…
