I have been inspired by Clare’s Cosmos to share my first attempt at photographing the moon – a la professional style. I can see the moon rising from our bedroom window and the balcony is a perfect spot to set up the tripod and ‘have a go’. I researched the ‘how to’ and realised that […]

Square in September – Day 7
Day 7 of the Square in September challenge and I was ‘tickled pink’ with this photograph. Chief and I were spending a few days in Singapore and from our hotel, we had a great view of the Marina Bay Sands Hotel – the swanky one that looks like a boat on stilts. I was checking […]

Square in September – Day 5
The Story Bridge in Brisbane is often lit in different colours to match the theme of various days on the state’s event calendar or in support of charity days. This picture was captured on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 a while back and I think it was to mark Pink Ribbon Day, the Cancer Council’s […]

Square in September – Day 4
For ten years the Royal Adelaide Show was a part of my life; it is where I worked and formed some life-long friendships. Then we upped sticks and relocated to Brisbane and most of you will know that I was dragged kicking and screaming to Queensland. You’ll be delighted to know that nearly three years […]

You can read all about how I […]

In the Pink – again

I had been wandering around the neighbourhood with camera in hand and spotted this flower tumbling over […]

My blogging buddy Clare of Clare’s Cosmos drew my attention to a photo challenge issued by Becky who has a super blog The Life of B. After the Weekly Photo Challenge from our lovely friends at WordPress (we miss you guys!) ceased, I’ve been missing that particular blogging community so I’m looking forward to forming new […]

Not the Weekly Photo Challenge
Sadly the WPC is no longer and I miss the community of like-minded bloggers sharing their take on the weekly photography challenge. Nevertheless, I can still share photos with you and here are the final Bali ones. I have broken all the photography rules in the book – such as the rule of thirds, – […]

The Other Side of Bali
Following a few days in Seminyak, we transferred to a hotel in Nusa Dua about half an hour to the south east. It was one of a cluster of resort hotels and was located right on the beach in a beautiful, peaceful spot. So imagine my disappointment, when strolling to the beach, I was confronted […]
