Five Minutes with Ms Robot #regularrandom
I recently posted Five Minutes @ Hellenic Republic which was a nice little challenge from one of my photography groups. After chatting with Robyn from Captivate Me, we decided to make it a weekly event and I ask you to join in the challenge. Robyn came up with the clever hashtag “regularrandom” so we will use…

The Sweet Life – 2
I previously posted some Macaron Macro here – they were macros of the Espresso Macaron from this collection of little beauties. The second one that I tasted was the Nutella Rocher – oh yes, you read that correctly. A hazlenutty crisp pastry, which a nutella filling and a hazelnut in the centre. So good. Actually,…

The Sweet Life – 1
I was invited to The Portarlington Mussel (not Muscle) Festival last weekend. It was a lovely day – basically a market with a lot of vendors selling all sorts of things, including mussels, fresh from the boat. They were delicious! However, what I was fascinated with was the huge array of Macarons (not to be…

Five Minutes @ Hellenic Republic
One of our photography groups is running a 52 week challenge, with a new prompt each week. The first week was #5Minutes, where we were tasked to take as many photos as we wanted, within 5 minutes, with the camera capturing the same location. I chose a restaurant near me, it’s a fabulous Greek place, run by…

Mums, Gerberas and Baby’s Breath
A life update is required, it’s been so long and so much has happened, but today instead I want to share with you some macro magic with flowers because I’ve missed doing this so much. I put together this bouquet for the new years holidays, it’s pink and pretty and I wanted some flowers to…

New Year Eve Fireworks
Happy New Year! I can’t believe how long I’ve been away. I’ve had the busiest travel schedule since about September last year, with only 3 weeks where I stayed home in Melbourne for the entire week during those 4 months. Quite a struggle but it’s over now. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday break…

The Flower Edit
A quick note before the real post starts: It’s 7pm on Friday night. I’ve been away all week for work, arrived home very very late last night and have spent the day catching up on so much work missed during the week. I’ve really missed the blogging world and all of you guys, so I…

Deconstructed Flower – 6
Julie and I have been at it again. This time, she came to my place and we filled my apartment with photography experiments. One of the many things she brought with her was this purple rose! It had been dyed purple. It seemed perfect for a deconstruction 🙂 And then the deconstruction. The petals were…

H2O!
Water, water everywhere! For the Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge: H2O. This week, I’ve featured shots that I’ve posted previously. It seems I take a lot of water shots! x desleyjane

Caged Flowers
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…

Deconstructed Flower – 5
After Julz and I finished painting the red rose, we decided to deconstruct it 🙂 Here it is earlier in the day. I had it on a white tablecloth near a window, with a white sheer curtain behind it. I love the light. Here’s a reminder of the light painting – you can see the…

Painted Rose
Thank goodness for Julz or I might never get any photography done these days! This is another series from an afternoon in her studio. We were immersed in darkness, with nothing but Julie’s coveted light wand and the faint glow from our camera screens to show us the way. What fun we had! Here is…
