  • Poppies in September (1)

    Poppies in September (1)

    I don’t think I’ve had fresh flowers in my new apartment since I moved in. Which is weird considering I used to buy fresh flowers almost every weekend. This weekend was a ling one in Melbourne, Friday through Sunday, and I seriously took advantage of it. I found a new (to me) florist just up…

  • Five Minutes with Some Ranunculus – RegularRandom

    Five Minutes with Some Ranunculus – RegularRandom

    I found a fabulous florist in my new neighbourhood – am loving it here in West Melbourne. I picked up some poppies and these ranunculus. I haven’t shot the poppies yet, those are to come. But this afternoon, I did a quick shoot with these pretty pink and white ranunculus. Just five minutes (actually it…

  • The Puppies of Gilpin Park

    The Puppies of Gilpin Park

    I was going to do a “RegularRandom” at the park, but it’s really really random when puppies come by. So, I’ve decided to share these joyous pups with you in a normal post instead. Many of you know I’ve moved, but I really love this park, so I just keep coming here each weekend. It’s…

    Five Minutes with Unicorn Cupcakes – RegularRandom

    I’ve been wanting to a little update for you for a while now but I haven’t had time. The update includes the fact that I’ve moved house, so I’d love to share some new photos with you, but I haven’t really taken any yet. I’ve also had to find a new bakery! Or else how…

    Five Minutes with the Most Spectacular Chocolates – RegularRandom

    Hi everyone. I’ve been away for a while and I apologize. It’s a long story and I’ll fill you in another post. Today though, let’s just enjoy these gorgeous chocolates from Sugar Harvest Chocolates in the Yarra Valley. My friend gave them to me for my birthday, which means I’ve had them for two whole…

  • And now for something completely different.

    And now for something completely different.

    A work friend’s husband is in a heavy metal band called Forklift Assassins. They were performing in a little bar nearby last night, so a group of us from work decided to get together for dinner and drinks and then headed to the bar to see the guys perform. I’ve been wanting to shoot a…

  • You know it’s going to be a cupcake, right? RegularRandom

    You know it’s going to be a cupcake, right? RegularRandom

    Yes, I’m back with a cupcake, I can’t help it, it’s just so pretty. This is the same cupcake from my last RegularRandom – Five Minutes with a Table Setup. I took quite a few photos that day, these ones focusing more on the cupcake itself. At the bakery, the owner knows that I photograph…

  • Paris – The Eiffel Tower

    Paris – The Eiffel Tower

    I’ve always had a thing for the Eiffel Tower. Seeing it in person was quite an experience. We were driving around on the hop-on-hop-off bus, everyone chatting and trying to keep warm on top of the bus, when I caught a glimpse, just before that first shot below. Such a thrill to get that first…

    Five Minutes With a Table Setup – RegularRandom

    I thought this pink cupcake was so love-ly that I just had to photograph it in this table setup. Would you like to join in the RegularRandom crew? Here’s how: Version 1: choose a subject or a scene spend five minutes photographing it – no more! try to not interfere with the subject, instead see…

  • Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile

    Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile

    I was a little overwhelmed by the Arc de Triomphe – I absolutely loved it. I think maybe because it was such a long drive up the Champs-Élysées to get to it – you can see it, getting bigger in your field of view, which for me was the windscreen of the bus – although…
