    Frozen Flowers, Again.

    One of my photography groups recently ran a series of “photography at home” events, one of which was my recent Water Drop post, which I loved. Another event was Frozen Flowers, which was good fun, but it was something I did a couple of years ago with my friend Julie. There were quite a few…

    Five Minutes with Poppies (or Ranunculus?) 1 – RegularRandom

    Today was a gorgeous day where in Melbourne – 17 degrees, with beautiful warm sunshine. I slept late, I caught up on some YouTubers I’d been missing, then I took Miss Gidget to the park. Everyone was out and about with their puppies, enjoying the fabulous warmth. A quick stop at the bakery (you know…

    The Mother’s Day bouquet that I put together was really a lot of fun for me – I took a lot of shots, and used parts of it in a few different shoots. I have a few more to come, but this is the last set of flowers alone. I’ve included a shot of the…
