    If you love life, don’t waste time, because time is what life is made of. -Bruce Lee I stopped off at the florists on Saturday morning to pick up some flowers for the weekend. I had no plans for what to buy, just something pretty. There were a couple of bunches of hyacinths on special,…

    Five Minutes with Hydrangea – RegularRandom

    Oh my! I went to buy a bunch of flowers for home. I love to have fresh flowers and I always end up shooting them. I wasn’t sure what I would find and I didn’t have anything particular in mind, except of course, you know I love pink. They had these gorgeous hydrangeas for just…

    This gorgeous white moth orchid (Phalaenopsis) was a post-surgery gift from some of my close friends at work. It is so pretty, I love it. It sits on the side table by my couch and its the first thing you see when you walk into my apartment. So, it seems appropriate for a RegularRandom treatment…

    The Flowers of Brunswick East (29)

    This is a super-tiny flower, so delicate, growing through and along a fence, forming a wall of deep green leaves and these tiny white blossoms. So pretty, and so paper-thin. x desleyjane

    Five Minutes with a Pink Posey – RegularRandom

    On Friday morning, I stubbornly pulled out my camera to take some photos of this gorgeous pink posey, sent to me by the lovely Lucile, all the way from Amsterdam to Melbourne (courtesy of FlowersAcrossMelbourne which is also FlowersAcrossAustralia). It’s my first time holding the camera since surgery 10 days prior. It wasn’t easy, but I…
