Five Minutes with Hydrangea – RegularRandom
Oh my! I went to buy a bunch of flowers for home. I love to have fresh flowers and I always end up shooting them. I wasn’t sure what I would find and I didn’t have anything particular in mind, except of course, you know I love pink. They had these gorgeous hydrangeas for just…

Five Minutes with a Rose in Decay – RegularRandom
For those of you who remember my special shoot for a friend’s 30th Wedding Anniversary, this is one of the roses left over from that shoot. I have him the rest of the bunch to give to his wife, but I kept this one since it was already cut. It dried over the Christmas break…

The Flowers of Brunswick East (37)
These shots are from prior to surgery. I have photographed these before, but I have no idea what they’re called. A quick shoulder update – I’ve told some of you in comments, but I’ll update you properly here. Before Christmas, I saw the physiotherapist and I wasn’t able to do a lot of the movements…

Five Minutes with an Orchid – RegularRandom
This gorgeous white moth orchid (Phalaenopsis) was a post-surgery gift from some of my close friends at work. It is so pretty, I love it. It sits on the side table by my couch and its the first thing you see when you walk into my apartment. So, it seems appropriate for a RegularRandom treatment…

Five Minutes with a Peony in Decay (RegularRandom)
Before Christmas, I had a small bunch of peonies, given to me by a friend after my shoulder surgery. I photographed them recently here and here with a cupcake. I kept one in a small vase on my desk, and gave the rest to a friend at work. The one on my desk had dried…

Pink – Peony & Cupcake
Following on from a previous post, I also just happened to have a pink cupcake in my possession, so I decided to photograph it alongside my pink peony. The whorls of the frosting look a bit like a flower to me. I love the colour, and oh yes it was delicious! x desleyjane

A Holiday in Mackay, Queensland
Just before Christmas, I flew from Melbourne to Mackay to spend Christmas and New Year’s with my family – my Mum, Dad and brother. It’s been a lovely two weeks, just relaxing with family, recuperating my shoulder, visiting with relatives, watching the cricket (20/20 of course!). We have taken a few opportunities to go out…

A Pretty Pink Peony
Happy New Year! I took these photos of a very pretty pink peony late last year. It was while my Mum was still staying with me after surgery. My friend Tess (who also takes care of Gidget for me when I travel) visited and gave me a little bunch of peonies – she remembered that…

A Special Shoot
I have a friend (who also happens to be a work colleague) who has been such a great help to me, and especially so since I tore the tendon in my shoulder. So when he asked me to do a mini photo shoot for his wife for their 30th Wedding Anniversary, I was excited to…

Wishing you Peace, Joy and Love.
Just a quick note to wish you a very Merry Christmas. It’s Christmas morning here and I’m about to hop out of bed for a coffee and see if anyone is awake. I want to thank all of you for your support this year. It’s been a difficult last month after surgery and I haven’t…
