    The Flowers of Brunswick East (2)

    Following on from my first photos of an evening walk around my neighbourhood. This is what I said last time: Gorgeous soft light abounded. However, I’m a little off my game. Handheld, the light was a little low in places, and with my frozen shoulder, I am not so good at minimising camera shake at…

    Opened Pink and Yellow Tulips

    After this week’s RegularRandom, where I showed you my shots of closed tulips, I thought I would share with you the shots from when they’d finally opened up, seven days later! I simply adore how paper thin this pink tulip is when backlit with natural light. x desleyjane

    The Flowers of Brunswick East (1)

    Daylight Savings has arrived in beautiful Melbourne, and we are one month into Spring. The sun doesn’t set until 7:30 and it’s getting later every day. That means we have beautiful sunshine for so much longer in the evenings. Last night, I was able to leave work at 5 (!!) and I was home by…

  • Buildings with Glass

    Buildings with Glass

    A friend recently asked me if I had any photos of glass buildings that I could share with him and so I trolled through all of my photos from the last few years where I thought I might find some. I really like this collection and so I thought I’d share it with you. I’ve…

  • Some Context for the Cake

    Some Context for the Cake

    I shared images of Chocolate Cake for this week’s #RegularRandom a few days ago and my friend Meg of Snippets&Scraps inspired me to show you the context of the shoot. Take a look at her post featuring some magical ice patterns. I was creating a planning session – sure I was “planning” to eat the…

  • Waiting the Time Away

    Waiting the Time Away

    Inspired by the photo from my post this morning featuring a similarly edited photo. This one is a scene in Boston from a few years ago. My camera was new and I was fascinated by this “art filter” that the camera can apply. I’ve always loved this photo.  I wonder if she’s just waiting for…

  • We Were Together.
