  • The Puppies of Gilpin Park

    The Puppies of Gilpin Park

    I was going to do a “RegularRandom” at the park, but it’s really really random when puppies come by. So, I’ve decided to share these joyous pups with you in a normal post instead. Many of you know I’ve moved, but I really love this park, so I just keep coming here each weekend. It’s…

  • Five Minutes with Clarry – RegularRandom

    Five Minutes with Clarry – RegularRandom

    I am currently in Brisbane, staying with my best friend Moana. Moana’s dog Clarry, is a gorgeous 15 month old Border Collie. He is the sweetest, gentlest little (big) guy who is so very loyal to his mama. Moana wanted a few new photos for her wall and so I spent some time – 5…

  • Five Minutes with Murray (and Molly) – RegularRandom

    Five Minutes with Murray (and Molly) – RegularRandom

    It would appear that I might be a creature of habit. Twelve months ago to the day, I was in Brisbane, I spent the day with my best friend, we did a lot of shopping and we went to the hairdresser. Yesterday was no different, we did all of that again. Just a happy coincidence,…

  • Five Minutes with MissGidget

    Five Minutes with MissGidget

    Welcome to another RegularRandom, where we spend just five minutes with a single subject or a frame, shooting from different angles, seeing how the light changes, all the while trying to interfere with our subject as little as possible. It had to happen eventually, you knew I would spend five minutes with Gidget. Here she…

  • Contemplation 10 – Pets

    Contemplation 10 – Pets

    Welcome to week 10 of Contemplation. Usually, I share a prompt from my Kikki.K A Sentence A Day Three Year Journal, but today I want to do something a little different. Today I’m creating my own prompt, based on something that happened last week. This week: how has a pet impacted your life? Last week,…

    iPhriday – The Pink Chicks

    I’m finally able to join Lisa from GrayDaysandCoffee‘s iPhriday again! It’s been so long and I’m so happy to be back. One of the most important things in a girl’s life is her hairdresser and I’m no exception! My brilliant stylist and friend, Mel, has been giving my hair the fab-treatment for some 12 years…

  • Gidget’s Photo Shoot (Tech of the Month)

    These photos are for the Tech of the Month: Focus on Animals event, hosted by PerelinColours and Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic. With this month focussed on animals, who don’t often sit still, the prompt is to focus on speed and to therefore avoid blurry shots of animals in motion. My favourite animal, is of course…

  • Blur

    Blur

    For the week’s Weekly Photo Challenge, we are prompted with the word Blur. At Christmas, it was very hot here in Brisbane and Gidget was cooling herself in the air conditioning so I took thee two shots, where I’ve moved the focal point between two different spots to create a blurred background, and a blurred…

  • There’s No Place Like Home

    There’s No Place Like Home

    I’m responding to a Daily Prompt as part of Blogging101, but I also think it’s quite appropriate for me to post this today. As most of you know, or can tell from the name of my blog, I do travel a lot and sometimes feel a little nomadic. When I arrived home from Sydney this evening, I…

  • Christmas Tea with Justine (Rehab19)

    Christmas Tea with Justine (Rehab19)

    For Justine’s Tea Time #2, I am bringing some Christmas goodies made by my Mama for Christmas. She makes these every year and they are delicious (except the fruit mince pies, I don’t like them, but my family tells me they are scrumptious). We have the fruit mince pies, chocolate crackles, apricot balls, rum balls…

    Photo101(9): Warmth of the Aussie Sun.

    In Australia, we don’t often need to “get warm” or “find warmth”. It’s coming to the end of Spring and the beginning of Summer so we get to bask in the warmth of the sun by the pool. Today I’m featuring Gidget’s best friend Olly (Gidget is my 6kg Maltese x Lhasa Apso and Olly…
