  • Image Reboot #2

    Welcome to the second instalment of our Image Reboot – in partnership with Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic. You can find the first one here. As enthusiastic photography enthusiasts, we wanted to include some editing techniques here – I am just an amateur, having installed Lightroom about a year ago and have taught myself the basics…

  • A Little Flower

    A Little Flower

    Just living is not enough… one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower. – Hans Christian Andersen     I have been nominated by Pommepal at Gypsy Life to post 5 photos over 5 days, with accompanying stories/musings/notes and also nominations for others to join the event. I’ve participated in this event a few…

  • Amsterdam City in Living Colour

    Amsterdam City in Living Colour

    I hope you aren’t getting too sick of my Amsterdam posts 😉 Today is the city in glorious colour. As I have said, I was there for 50 hours. This was over three separate days and these photos span all three days. The first day was overcast, day 2 was glorious and day 3 was…

  • Beauty in the Mundane

    Beauty in the Mundane

    I was filling my car with fuel the other day, when I looked up and was struck by the shape of the carpark structure of the shopping centre next door. As a regular at Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic, I of course had my camera with me. I took these shots with my Olympus OMD EM5…

  • Momentarily Technical

    Momentarily Technical

    Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.  – Omar Khayyam, Persian mathematician, astronomer, poet and philosopher. And very clever man.  For Justine’s Eclectic Corner #11: Momentarily.

  • Amsterdam People (B&W)

    Amsterdam People (B&W)

    I think I’ve already mentioned that I took a lot of photos during my 50 hours with the lovely Lucile in Amsterdam, so I wanted to share the photos gradually with you. Today, I’m sharing my black and white images of the people of Amsterdam. Some of these were taken during a walk through the…

  • Flowers of Amsterdam

    Flowers of Amsterdam

    Here’s my second post on my whirlwind trip to Amsterdam. You can see my first post here. Today, I want to show you the flowers. We found these in big planters outside the Eye Film Institute. Some of them seem like they’re made of tissue paper. Also, there’s a special little surprise in the mix…  …

  • Separation Binds

    Separation Binds

      The panels of glass in this very large window are separated by thick metal strips. The thick metal strips bind the glass panels together to form a very large window. This could be a post about construction.  It could be about architecture. It could be about seeing the world as glass half full or…

  • Lucile’s Red Bridge

    Lucile’s Red Bridge

      Yesterday, I posted Blogger Babes in London – a wonderful meet up between Justine from Eclectic Odds n Sods, Lucile from Bridging Lacunas and myself. It was such a wonderful day with truly remarkable people! When I left Justine’s, I travelled to Amsterdam and was met by the lovely Lucile and her husband and I…

  • Spectacular Skies

    Spectacular Skies

    The joys of jet lag. I crashed into bed at 9:30 last night and am wide awake this morning at 3:30am! Hopefully this is the last of it!! Usually, my photos of the sky are taken from within an airplane, but I couldn’t resist these shots from the ground recently here in Brisbane. Taken with…

  • Blogger Babes in London

    Blogger Babes in London

      I am so blessed to have met such lovely people here in the WordPress world. As many of you know, I recently went to Cambridge (UK) for a work trip. It was an intensive trip with long work days immediately followed by evening social events. It was a fantastic week actually. Work finished up…

  • Intricate Design

    Intricate Design

    I was originally thinking that the best intricacies would be in nature and that might be true, but I was able to find some wonderful man-made intricacies while visiting a temple in Chiang Mai, Thailand. It’s a beautiful place, but the juxtaposition between the rich and the poor is quite confronting. To visit this temple,…
