  • Arterial Canopy

    Arterial Canopy

    Blood vessels spreading carrying life-giving blood? No, it’s just a tree.   It seems I’m quite obsessed with creating silly haikus….   This photo was taken at King’s Park in Perth. I was on an evening photo walk with a group of photography enthusiasts, wandering about the park and learning new techniques. Photo Walks are…

  • Alien Plant Farm

    Alien Plant Farm

    It’s intriguing what a macro shot can show you. On my recent walk through my garden, I took these two photos. I find them to be quite strange and almost alien-like structures. I think they make great freaky additions to Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic. This first one is a small pest with a milky sap…

  • Let it Be?

    Let it Be?

      I took my camera on a stroll through my garden on Sunday with my 60mm (120mm equivalent) macro lens attached. I came across this little garden pest growing amongst the rocks near my clothesline. As I usually do, I got down low and spent some time shooting this lovely little flower. It’s growing quite wildly…

  • Birds & Cider

    Birds & Cider

    Some birds are not meant to be caged, that’s all.– Stephen King, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. The reason birds can fly and we can’t is simply because they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings. – J.M. Barrie, The Little White Bird.   These photos are going to Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab…

  • Fly By Night

    Fly By Night

      On a recent flight home from Sydney, I captured a photo of some architecture which I called Curves and Edges. I almost always arrive home from a trip in the late evening, it’s almost always dark when I get to my car. And I’ve always enjoyed seeing the airport lit up at night. Never…

  • Capturing Raindrops

    Capturing Raindrops

    I did Photo101 in November 2014 and one of the prompts was “Water”. I posted a photo of water dripping from a tap where I caught the individual droplets in the frame. It was quite a popular post, you can see it here. This weekend has been a stormy and rain-filled one here in Brisbane,…

  • Desolation

    Desolation

    Travel for work can be a lonely experience. The airport carpark late on a Friday night describes this feeling very well. I’m adding this photo to Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic. Please come and take a look at some fabulous photographs from some die-hard photographers. Taken with my Olympus OMD EM5, with the 17mm lens (35mm…

  • Curves and Edges

    Curves and Edges

    I have walked through Brisbane Airport more than 100 times. On a return fight from Sydney recently, on a Friday night after 9pm, I noticed this structure on the rail station, which is one floor up from the main walkway between the terminal and the carpark. I’m sure I must have seen it before, but…

  • Looking Sideways, Looking Up

    Looking Sideways, Looking Up

    These are photos of the ceiling of an elevator in a hotel in Perth. I find the geometry in these photos quite fascinating. I find it interesting how much money is spent on the inside of elevators. They are just a small container to transport people for less than one minute, and yet some of…

  • Sydneyside

    Sydneyside

    I was in Sydney for work last week and one night, it was almost 7 before I got back from work, so did some googling and found a great spot to see the city, the bridge and even the Opera House. The light was fading and a storm was rolling in, so it was quite…

  • A Piece of Nepal in Brisbane

    A Piece of Nepal in Brisbane

    While out shooting for my March Changing Season’s post, I spent some time at the Nepalese Pagoda. This was the Kingdom of Nepal’s contribution to World Expo 88 which was held here in Brisbane. The Pagoda has become a permanent fixture within the lush rainforest walk at Southbank. According to visitbrisbane “it features 80 tonnes…

  • Long Way Down

    Long Way Down

     Playing with perspective, focus and depth of field are some of my favourite things.  This photo is going into Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic, a place for all die-hard photography addicts.  x desleyjane
