  • A Little Break Away

    A Little Break Away

    This photos in this post are my photos from Instagram this week.  As you may know from previous posts, I am travelling at the moment. I have been visiting Brisbane for work and also managed to catch up with friends. I also got to see some of the beautiful sights, which I posted in last…

  • My Week on Instagram

    My Week on Instagram

    This frequent flying scientist has started flying frequently again! Well, sort of. This post contains all of the photos that I posted to Instagram this week. This time, I’m back in my old town of Brisbane. Such a beautiful city. As you may remember, I’m so fond of the wheel and the bridge and the…

    iPhriday – a birthday and a conference.

    I haven’t travelled since I moved to Melbourne in January, but this week I had a doozy of a trip. It started with a weekend in Brisbane for my best friend’s birthday. What a fun weekend, we had such a good time and it was really good seeing these guys again. Massages, dinners, cocktails, way too…

    New Year, New Beginning

    Happy New Year! Thank you to everyone for making 2015 a successful blogging year. I apologise for my absence over the last few weeks. As most of you know, I was in the process of selling my home in Brisbane and moving to Melbourne. I am happy to report that my house has now sold…

  • Sarina Beach

    Sarina Beach

    This post was written before New Year’s Eve and I somehow neglected to post it… Finally it’s raining and the weather is much cooler, it’s beautiful. The only sacrifice is the loss of blue skies, but I love a good dark cloud, so I’m ok with it. We took a drive while my brother was…

  • Shoal Point Beach.

    Shoal Point Beach.

    It has been so dry here in Mackay. Well maybe that’s not the right way to put it. I’ve mentioned in some comments about how humid it is here – it’s usually about 30 degrees Celsius by 9am and sits at between 70 and 75% humidity. There’s a breeze off the ocean, but it’s a hot…

  • The Trek North

    The Trek North

    I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and holiday season so far. I did the long trek north in the car with my Dad a few days before Christmas. It was 1,064km and took us a little over 13 hours (see the map at the end of this post for a good idea of…

  • iPhriday – Selfie

    iPhriday – Selfie

    On my last flight, I forgot to bring a book or a screen so I did what all hip young gals do and took a selfie 😋 But I tried for something a little different – this is me on almost every flight: I’m joining Lisa at GrayDaysandCoffee, sharing a smartphone photo each Friday. I…

  • 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…

  • Short Shoot in Melbourne

    Last week I visited Melbourne for a day trip. I left my home at 5am, worked all day, then flew out at 8pm, arriving back at my home at 11:30pm. I knew I would have a couple of hours before my flight home so I took my trusty Olympus OMD EM5 with my 17mm (35mm equivalent)…

  • Bumpy Split

    Another shot from Queenstown, it was a cloudy and overcast day, some snow and very cold. This photo is another one for The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Half and Half and also for Lucile’s Photo101 Rehab Clinic. x desleyjane
