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…

Queensland Art Gallery – March 2015
In my first Changing Seasons post (January), I featured some photos of exhibits from the Queensland Art Gallery. I love this place, the exhibits are amazing. During my most recent Changing Seasons post (March), I spent some more time at my favourite exhibit, Zilvinas Kempinas’s Columns 2006, an installation of magnetic video tape. I’ve featured some…

Beautiful Brisbane – March 2015
We have a tourism catchphrase here in Queensland – Beautiful one day, perfect the next…. It is a beautiful city and I am very happy to showcase one small part of it for Cardinal’s Monthly Changing Seasons Challenge.

Twilight Beach
During my recent 5 Photos 5 Stories challenge, I posted a photo entitled Despair, which was a black and white photo of my friend up on a rock. That same evening, I took a number of photos at the beach (Maroubra). It was almost 8pm and the light was almost gone, I quite like…

Orange is the New Challenge
My submission for this week’s photo challenge – Orange. I love these gallery challenges, it’s fun to go through and find photos that are unrelated except by their hue. These include photos taken with my Olympus OMD EM5 (they’re the watermarked photos). Interspersed are also a bunch of iPhone snaps. Some of these I’ve posted before…

One Photo Focus 3
This week for One Photo Focus, Stacy from Visual Venturing brings to us a photo from Loré Dombaj from Snow’s Fissures and Fractures, called Scene from a Salzburg Cafe. Actually, I have a sneaking feeling that I’ve been to this very spot many many years ago! Here is the original photo: I had a little trouble trying…

Who Am I ??
I found some very cool plants on my recent travels. My header image is shown in colour in the gallery below – it’s a very cool dark dark purple colour. It’s an amazing succulent, but I couldn’t find anyone to tell me what it is. The header image, I was trying some new editing. I converted…

Tea (Coffee) Party
I’m again joining Justine’s Tea Party and bringing one of my favourite coffees – the affogato. This delicious little concoction is a scoop (or 2) of ice cream with a shot (or 2) of hot espresso. Affogato is Italian for drowned, so let’s drown our ice cream in coffee – yum! Don’t forget to use…
