  • Miss G (B&W5, Rehab14)

    Miss G (B&W5, Rehab14)

    Here she is. My love. Heart of my Heart. Precious, yet precocious. Sweet, yet temperamental. Gorgeous, but a tiny bit neurotic. Here she is. My love. Many of you know my puppy, Gidget. She is a Maltese-Lhasa Apso cross with a gorgeous spirit and a sweet temperament. She loves people, her best friend is a 50kg…

    Lovely Lou (B&W4, Rehab13)

    I am, as usual, in the Qantas lounge and about to take my 5th flight in 7 days (6th flight in 11 days). It’s been a very busy and tiring lead up til Christmas and I am thankful that the week is over. For today’s post, I give you the Lovey Lou. Not a “usual”…

  • Sweet Boy (B&W3, Rehab12)

    Sweet Boy (B&W3, Rehab12)

    This is probably my favourite portrait from the South Pacific. I was in Vanuatu, having a tour of the village. This young boy was tasked with guiding us to the final spot, where we enjoyed some local fruits and drinks and a tribal dance. I’m submitting this for Day 3 of the B&W photo challenge (Cardinal…

  • Curses (B&W2, Rehab11)

    Curses (B&W2, Rehab11)

    I was so excited when I took this photo. It was in Lifou (in the South Pacific). A group of dancers entertained us for about half an hour and this dancer was the most serious the whole time, even afterwards when the others were interacting with the crowd. I captured this image and I felt like…

  • Eclectic Corner – Decadence (Extreme)

    Eclectic Corner – Decadence (Extreme)

    In the cloying darkness of the dance floor, she closed her eyes, flinging her body from side to side, up and down with the heavy beat. Sweat dripped, wet clothes clinging to her tiny frame. Completely unaware of the crowd around her, she danced, her arms waving above her head. She was in a trance,…

    Eclectic Corner – Decadence (Passion)

    As their fingertips finally touched, she looked up in time to see the candlelight flash in his eyes. He smiled that familiar devilish smile, as his fingers moved to caress the inside of her wrist and she could not hold back the sharp intake of breath at the aching anticipation of what was soon to…

  • Beautiful Boy (B&W1, Rehab10)

    Beautiful Boy (B&W1, Rehab10)

    I have been dying for an opportunity to show you this portrait of my lovely friend, actually he is the partner of one of my all-time-favourite people, so he has become a dear friend of mine as well. You may remember his silhouette from the Photo101 Solitude post. Cardinal Guzman has challenged me to join…

  • The Beach (Rehab9)

    The Beach (Rehab9)

    For today’s rehab clinic, I was able to go back to Maroubra Beach in the morning, and it was a much sunnier day so I was able to get some nice colour in the shots. My plan was to try to capture some of the waves breaking on the rocks. I’ve taken all of these…

    Eclectic Wrinkle – The Answer Is…

    Justine’s Guessing Game on Eclectic Corner really got people thinking and commenting. I had 78 comments on the original post for this little puzzler! You figured out pretty quickly that it was wood – I loved that it has “burnt bubbly bits”. Here are some of my favourite comments (Anujakokrady’s is my favourite): KROSSCOURT Ummmmmmm,…

  • Long days, photo two ways (Rehab8)

    Long days, photo two ways (Rehab8)

    Waiting. Trapped behind glass. Desperate to enter. Denied. The light will conquer the darkness. Waiting. With so many hours of my time spent waiting in airports and sitting on planes, I have really enjoyed flicking through my photos and playing with editing techniques. This photo was taken kind of at random in a coffee shop…

  • Flower Power (Rehab7)

    Flower Power (Rehab7)

    We were in the office from 8am til 7pm today then dinner with the team til now (10pm) so I apologise, these are from the archives. You know I love macro and I also love flowers, so I really enjoy getting up close with my 60mm macro lens and seeing how it performs hand-held at…

  • View from Above (Rehab6)

    View from Above (Rehab6)

    It was another big day today. A very late night last night (I forgot I was on daylight savings time) and an early start today. I sacrificed breakfast for sleep and just stopped off for a coffee on the way to the office. We had meetings all day at work, plus a meeting after work then…
