  • The Prison of Her Heart

    The Prison of Her Heart

    And she takes another step. A step towards the gap. The gap in the wall. The wall of her prison. The prison of her heart. I’ve been nominated by afairymind over at Storyteller’s Abode to participate in the 5 Photos / 5 Stories Black and White Photo Challenge. She has been posting some great photos with some…

  • Colour No Colour

    Colour No Colour

    Just a quick post tonight. Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I feel a bit silly for being a sap last night, but also very loved reading all your comments.  I think I have a little bug, and today my voice is fading a little, much to my friends’ amusement. I like these colour…

  • Delicate Little Flower

    Delicate Little Flower

    For today’s black and white photo (nominated by Passionately Curious), I am submitting a photo that I took while setting up a new regular feature that I’ve been working on. This is a carnation and I had a feeling that I would like it in black and white – the texture really comes through and gives them…

  • Road to Nowhere?

    Road to Nowhere?

    I spent this last week in Sydney. It was such a busy week, leaving the hotel at about 8 each day and not getting back until 11pm or later. I even dashed to Melbourne for a day on Wednesday as well!  However, I was lucky enough to catch up with my friends and visit their…

  • No Way Out

    No Way Out

    And between the walls lies desperation. For the Black and White Challenge, as nominated by @nty6x at Passionately Curious, I must post one b&w photo per day for 5 days and nominate someone each day.

  • Angry Bird

    Angry Bird

    Today’s post for my dear Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab. I went out today in the sticky heat of Brisbane for a photo session but as I was getting in the car, I saw this little Myna Bird on the fence. I grabbed the camera, switched it on and started clicking, changing settings like crazy and was able…

  • Serene Contemplation

    Serene Contemplation

    On a trip to Chiang Mai for a work conference last year, we took time out to visit a temple. This gentlemen spent some time at these lanterns, whether praying or meditating, I’m not sure. It was such a busy place with so many tourists bustling about, but the locals didn’t waver in their dedication.…

  • Beautiful Brisbane – January 2015

    Beautiful Brisbane – January 2015

    This post is my submission for Cardinal Guzman Monthly Photo Challenge – The Changing Seasons. I’ve been thinking about this challenge for a while now, trying to decide on a location – this has to be a place where I can return each month to record around 20 photos. The idea is to document the…

  • Stalk in Shadows

    Stalk in Shadows

    By the light of day It waits Darkness descending It grows stronger Impatient Waiting for night   This is my tripod and the shadows it casts at night. I don’t know if it’s just me, but I think it looks like an alien robot stalking some dark and gritty planet surface. This photo was taken…

    Inspired by Andy (Rehab18)

    I was in a bar last week with a dear friend. We were waiting for his colleague’s flight to arrive, but he was delayed and decided not to join us. We had the best time! It’s a tiny little gin bar with a lovely bartender who went out of his way to find us cocktails…
