  • Five Minutes with a Fig Danish – Regular Random

    Five Minutes with a Fig Danish – Regular Random

    It has been a while since I last posted here, two months in fact! While the world is changing, we’re all staying in one place. Today, I’m sharing a delicious Fig Danish that I picked up on the weekend. My weekends are very quiet these days. I’ve had a second shoulder surgery, which keeps me…

  • Five Minutes with Rhoeo spathacea – Regular Random

    Five Minutes with Rhoeo spathacea – Regular Random

    Last week, I spent five minutes with Clarry, who is my best friend Moana’s Border Collie. While I was in the backyard, I also spent 5 minutes (4 actually) with this lovely “Stripe Me Pink” plant, also known as Rhoeo spathacea. I used to have many of these in my garden when I lived in…

  • Five Minutes with French Earl Grey Tea Cake – RegularRandom

    Five Minutes with French Earl Grey Tea Cake – RegularRandom

    I discovered a new-to-me coffee place last weekend, picked up a very good takeaway flat white, and a croissant for the next day’s breakfast. Today, I stopped by there again with Gidget to get another flat white. They let me bring her inside the very tiny store to order my coffee, and I saw this…

  • Rise / Set

    Rise / Set

    Since moving to Melbourne more than two years ago, I’ve yet to find a good spot to capture sunsets. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of great sunset spots, but finding somewhere easy to get to and at the right time of day is difficult. Given where I work though, I might have to…

  • Rounded

    Rounded

    I went a bit crazy with this dandelion. It’s quite difficult with them waving around in the breeze but I wanted to get up super close to this one. Imagine if I could cut it and take it home without it falling apart and photograph under controlled conditions?! This was taken from such a weird…

  • Scale

    Scale

    For The Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Scale. One of the Art Filters on my Olympus OMD EM5 is a Tilt Shift effect, which creates this intriguing miniature effect – I love it, it’s been ages since I’ve used it. These photos are from 2014. x desleyjane

  • Buildings with Glass

    Buildings with Glass

    A friend recently asked me if I had any photos of glass buildings that I could share with him and so I trolled through all of my photos from the last few years where I thought I might find some. I really like this collection and so I thought I’d share it with you. I’ve…

  • Waiting the Time Away

    Waiting the Time Away

    Inspired by the photo from my post this morning featuring a similarly edited photo. This one is a scene in Boston from a few years ago. My camera was new and I was fascinated by this “art filter” that the camera can apply. I’ve always loved this photo.  I wonder if she’s just waiting for…

  • My happy little corner of the world.

    My happy little corner of the world.

    For this week’s Daily Posy Weekly Photo Challenge – Corner – we are invited to share a corner that speaks to us.  This is my happy little corner of the world. My desk at home. The place where I plan (did I mention I’m a #plannergirl?), I write, I edit photos and I just be. This…
