  • Frozen Flowers, Again.

    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…

  • How Beautiful the Darkness

    How Beautiful the Darkness

    Normal people have no idea how beautiful the darkness is. (unknown) I focused in on one of the flowers for a special feature and then had a little play in Lightroom. I love the dark one the most. Olympus OMD EM5 60mm macro x desleyjane

    Five Minutes with Stock Flowers – RegularRandom

    So these are called Stock. Such an unspecific name for a very pretty and fragrant flower. This is my first five minutes with these flowers. More shots are coming in the next couple of posts. And here are the more boring shots of the vase in full: Would you like to join in the RegularRandom…

    Five Minutes with the pinkest posey I’ve ever seen – RegularRandom

    Hi there, Welcome to this week’s RegularRandom. I’ve been a little random with posting lately, and I apologise for that. I’ve had a few different things popping up in my life – friends visiting, large amounts of work, my kikki.K Planner Insider project, and two new projects, which I will fill you in on in…

  • More Paint Planets, and Some Volcanoes

    More Paint Planets, and Some Volcanoes

    Following on from yesterday’s post, we took away the red background and replaced it with a white one. We also mixed our primary(ish) colours, to make green and purple as well. I used my Olympus OMD EM5 as usual for these shots, with the 60mm macro lens – it allowed me to get close and…

    Seven Minutes with a Little Feather – RegularRandom

    Hello and welcome to Regular Random! Sorry I’ve been away for some time, I’ll give you a little update at the bottom of this post 🙂 For now though, let’s dive into the beauty of this gorgeous little feather. It measure 7cm from tip to tip. I was on my way to my car after…

    Five Minutes with Christmas Decorations – RegularRandom

    Last week, I featured some delicious Lindt chocolates that Julz and I shot a few weeks ago. In that same shoot, we also had a play with some Christmas decorations in the same style, so I thought I would show you those here. These mini Christmas balls are so cute and definitely my colours. Oh…

  • The Flowers of Brunswick East (32)

    The Flowers of Brunswick East (32)

    These were taken in two separate locations – the first four were right behind a fence, so I could only shoot down. The next two were in a garden, so I shot from the fence line to get more of the plant in the frame. A striking plant, shot with my Olympus OMD EM5 with…

    The Flowers of Brunswick East (23)

    Is this that funny little flower that’s meant to look a bit rude? It was difficult to photograph – about knee height, growing through a fence, but I just adore that little hairy set of buds! How sweet?! And the flowers are quite cute too. Tiny, as usual! Sore shoulder, as usual. Olympus macro, as…

    The Flowers of Brunswick East (20)

    This very red flower demanded some attention. It is so vibrant, quite small, but definitely catches the eye. Of course, I don’t know what it is, I’m sure you can help me!   x desleyjane
