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…

Butterfly Flower.
Another gallery of shots taken during my recent Changing Seasons shoot. I don’t know what this flower is, please let me know if you do? (I did pass Botany at Uni, but…..). It reminds me of an orchid, but it was growing almost 1 metre tall in large bunches. I’ve also seen them on the…

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

(Extra)ordinary
This Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge is (Extra)ordinary: Mundane and meaningful objects. Beautiful everyday things. This week, surprise us with something or someone (extra)ordinary. 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…

I Finally Found a Dandelion!
Good grief I’ve been wanting to photograph dandelions for ages. I thought they must not exist near me, but last weekend I found one trapped within the apple blossoms in my front garden. It turns out that I’ve photographed one before when it was in the yellow flower form – I never knew what this flower…

Bench Series – October
This month, Jude from Travel Words is looking for benches with someone or something on them. I took this photo for one of my Changing Seasons shoots. I love how comfy these two look, and completely unaware of the world around them. x desleyjane

Sweetness & Light
I took this photo on my recent Changing Seasons shoot at Southbank Parklands in Brisbane. My friend and I were chatting and I spotted this plant waving in the breeze above the smaller plants around it. I tried my best to get it to autofocus but it didn’t want to, so I used manual focus.…

It Wasn’t My Last Garden Shoot.
I did a shoot in my front garden last weekend and I wondered if I’d have time to do another one. Today, I did. I wandered around the back garden today, with my 60mm macro lens and got up to my old tricks of lying in the grass to get up close and personal with…

Beautiful Brisbane – October 2015
I feel like this might have been my last Changing Seasons (hosted by Cardinal Guzman) shoot for Brisbane. Maybe I can fit one more in? Not sure… I met up with an old friend and we went on a walk around Southbank with our cameras and our conversation, visiting all the usual spots as well as a…

Last Garden Shoot?
I have some apple blossom plants in my front garden that are supposed to become a hedge. They have taken years to grow and finally (now that I’m moving) they’re starting to really take off. They are covered in beautiful white blossoms and I always see so many bees buzzing around the blossoms. I’ve wanted…

iPhone Grids
I scrolled through my phone this morning and found this little collection of photos that I think work for this week’s The Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge : Grid. Oops I just realised that Chicago Tower was not taken with my iPhone. I think it was taken before iPhones were invented. With my old Canon…

Bunny Ears
On the weekend, I was pottering about shooting for The Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge and came up with this shot of my pink bunny ears! You can see the whole bunny and her little yellow baby bunny here. Also for Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic. x desleyjane
