Listening

Beautiful Brisbane – August 2015 (1)
I just found out this is my 300th post!! This is the first time I’ve managed to do two Changing Seasons posts in two consecutive months! Usually, I skip every second month because of my travels. If you don’t know it already, this is a challenge set up by Cardinal Guzman to encourage us to go…

Experimenting with Light
I trapped myself in my hotel room one night in Melbourne last week with a pizza and a bottle of wine and my camera. They had upgraded me to a corner suite which gives me a view of the park and the city, so I decided to experiment – remember, I am a scientist 😉…

Creepy
This week, The Daily Post challenges us to find something Creepy. Now I don’t usually find clowns particularly creepy, although it totally depends on the clown 😉 I felt a little chill when I noticed that this particular clown at the Royal Show (Ekka) was looking right at me!! Possessed?!!! Yikes. Have a fabulous weekend.…

PhotoRehab Cover Makeover 6

Zooming in on Light Effects
This post is for the Available Light joint feature between Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic and Nalinki’s Angles and Views. This month, she asks us to experiment with light effects! The photos here were all taken more than a year ago. My photography skills have improved since then, so I would really like to try these…

A Single Drop
How cool is this single drop? It’s perched on the end of one of the leaves of the weed shown below. I love the way water droplets are rounded (that’s science!!) and that they reflect the world around them (that’s science too LOL). This pink flower is a tiny weed, just a centimetre long. Oh…

Beneath Our Feet
I had grand plans of finding cool things to photograph beneath my feet for this week’s Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge but time is slipping away as I’m travelling a lot at the moment. So when my best friend took me for pedicures, shopping, dinner, cocktails and a movie on Saturday night for my…

Wheel-ly Long Exposures
This post is for the Photo Rehab Clinic’s Tech of the Month (Long Exposure), a join feature between luciledegodoy.com and perelincolors.com. This month, she asks us to experiment with longer exposures. I had a short time before dinner on Saturday night, so we went to see the Brisbane Wheel and take some shots at different…
