  • A Housewarming Gift

    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…

    Taking Macro to the Next Level

    Sometimes my job is a lot of fun. Last week, we had a big trade display at a conference here in Melbourne. I got to play with a bunch of toys, and learn from some of our suppliers visiting from Japan and The Netherlands. You know how much I love macro photography, right? I was…

  • Bathed in Yellow.

    Bathed in Yellow.

    This is another of the buds I had picked for my Trio post. This one had such a pretty centre so I had to photograph it. And then I had to play in Lightroom to see what I could make ๐Ÿ˜€ These laboratory experiments belong in the clinic: Photo101Rehab. x desleyjane

  • Bee Detailed.

    Bee Detailed.

    I posted some macro shots of a bee that I found recently. I went back to take another look at the photos and went through the ones that I had not yet edited and decided to crop in and take a look at the detail that I was able to capture. I think he’s actually…

    Of Wasps and Bees

    I found this little guy on my windowsill and transferred him to my white side table. A simple process you might think, but I refused to touch it and was too lazy to get up so I used my lens cap instead. Which wasn’t really appropriate but it worked eventually. I thought it was a…

  • The Yellow (and Pink) Rose of Brisbane

    A little while ago, I posted this photo amongst my garden shoot: It was quite a popular photo, so the following weekend, I went and photographed some more buds on the same rosebush. This rose is beautifully complex. It starts as a yellow bud and then opens with pink tips on the petal. As it…

  • Blue Flowers in a Blue Sky.

    Another couple of shots from my garden, taken during a recent shoot – actually these are from the neighbour’s garden – they are poking out above the fence, waving in the breeze. I should know what it’s called, but I don’t. Anyone? For Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic. x desleyjane

My family stayed at my place for a few days this week as they were moving between their home that they just sold and a rental property in Mackay while they build…
