This is a little session in light painting, again with Julz. You can see the tracks of the wand reflected in the bulb. I love the backdrop in these shots, it’s really lovely. I find it a little cold. It’s a nice picture, but it’s cold and lacking something. I took another shot and converted…
Read MoreI have recently posted a number of photos with white negative space, I really enjoy that type of photography. However lately, I’ve wanted to experiment with dark negative space instead. I plan to do some shooting in the next week or so, but in the meantime I did a little editing in Lightroom on an image…
Read MoreJust a quick one to show you the light gathering above the horizon about 20 minutes after sunset the other night. Just glorious. For Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic – swing on by and visit us sometime. These photos were taken with my Olympus OMD EM5 with the 17mm (35mm equivalent) lens. x desleyjane
Read MoreMilly was cold, so cold. Her daughters were fussing around her room, pulling up her blankets, arranging flowers, tidying the nightstand. They were such good girls, all three of them. They’d fought like cats and dogs as children, but they loved each other just as fiercely. And they loved her fiercely as well, she suddenly…

I went on a cruise to New Zealand in 2011 and the person I was sharing with was a very loud and constant snorer, although completely lacking any rhythm at all. As we docked into Auckland, I escaped to our balcony (thank goodness we had one) at about 4am with my iPod and my camera…
Read MoreWelcome to the first instalment of Image Reboot – a monthly feature partnering with Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic, and designed to give you some insight into how I go about editing photos in Lightroom.

During my recent 5 Photos 5 Stories challenge, I posted a photo entitled Despair, which was a black and white photo of my friend up on a rock. That same evening, I took a number of photos at the beach (Maroubra). It was almost 8pm and the light was almost gone, I quite like…

I could see the sunset in the distance, but it was always obscured by buildings and such, so it was a great REWARD to round the corner and spot this scene. I had to pull into someone’s driveway and jump out of the car with just a couple of minutes of light left, but…

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…
