Contemplation – How I Feel
Hello and welcome to week 12 of Contemplation. I hope you had a good week last week. It was very busy as seems to be usual here lately. On top of a busy week at work, it was another full weekend, but no camera time unfortunately. It’s been raining pretty steadily for about 5 days now,…

My Week on Instagram
I really enjoy Instagram. It’s fun to play with editing and filters and the content I post is often more candid and casual – iPhone snaps, food and friends, things I come across on my wanderings or edits I play with while watching TV. I post there quite regularly and am always interested to see…

A Housewarming Gift
I live in Melbourne, almost 2,000km from Brisbane, where I lived before. When I was looking for somewhere to live, it was difficult to do so from Brisbane. Online tools are very useful, but it’s just not the same as seeing the apartment in the flesh. Once I had found a place I liked (based…

Looking Forward
I love to play with photo-editing apps on my iPhone. I took this photo during my shoot for my last post and then opened it in Pixlr to add the Silk overlay effect and a frame. Next, I tried a new app called Whitagran to add the text. Do you believe that good things are…
