• I heart faces – Balloons

  Posted on Tuesday November 3rd, 2009 at 09:47 in photos, dippity, i heart photos

  This week’s theme  is balloons and when I think of balloons I always think of my dad’s 60th birthday. We held it at my place and blew up about 200 helium filled balloons with long ribbon tails to cover the ceiling. Then we all waited wi...

• Images from my birthday

  Posted on Thursday October 29th, 2009 at 04:23 in family, photos, birthday

  I have this big wall calendar on my pin-up board and hopefully my colleagues noted my reminder! The date jumps out at me from everywhere. My colleagues have bought me a present but it doesn’t arrive for a few days… intrigued?  I am. ...

• Nesting with class

  Posted on Tuesday October 13th, 2009 at 04:51 in photos, random, bird

  I went out to lunch today with a couple I don’t know that well but am getting to know better.  He is a great networker! Anyway on the way back to work I spied this bird who has made a nest in the middle of the artificial lake on top of a sculp...

• Wildflowers of Karratha

  Posted on Thursday October 8th, 2009 at 22:47 in photos, wildflowers, pilbara, wa, karratha

  I’ve just returned from a short visit to Karratha.  Clear blue skies, temperatures in the high 20s, low 30s.  It was nice to feel hot. But it just gets hotter later in the year.  Too hot. What struck me this time coming in from the airport ...

• Everlasting moment

  Posted on Thursday October 1st, 2009 at 03:15 in photos, east perth, everlastings

  After two days of foul, cold, nasty weather, today the sky was blue and I could venture out to get my lunch. You don’t often see everlastings in the city – sure if you go up to Kings Park you will but not on the city streets. These lovel...

• Change of seasons

  Posted on Monday September 21st, 2009 at 22:10 in photos

  You’ve seen this sculpture on the blog before.  This is another mood. A stormy darker mood. Loving those brooding clouds in the background. So different from the bold statement of summer....

• Cropping dilemma

  Posted on Sunday September 20th, 2009 at 22:58 in photos, cropping, ranunculus

  I love the colours in this flower, they are so rich. But how to crop? The tight crop works for me because the stamens are so gorgeously purple… but then maybe you miss out on the petals? What do you think? The green is a nice balance… b...

• Sunset in the suburbs

  Posted on Wednesday September 16th, 2009 at 06:17 in photos, canon, sunset, cottesloe, hugamuga

  Everything is pink outside said my son this afternoon… Ah ha! I thought, the perfect chance to use the “sunset” feature on my new camera… This is straight out of the camera – no photoshopping I promise, not even a tweak...

• Tasmanian bark

  Posted on Tuesday September 15th, 2009 at 16:04 in photos, random, camera, macro, bark, east perth

  On my first day with my new camera I was walking past some trees in Fielder St, East Perth. The bark looked like the perfect subject to test the macro features out. So interesting… Kind of geographical…  like a map… Somewhere dow...

• My blogjo is back

  Posted on Tuesday September 15th, 2009 at 06:00 in photos, canon, camera, photogrpahy

  Some people think and therefore blog. Others blog and therefore think. But I need a photo. Without a camera – my blog mojo evaporates. Groover – smart fellow – realised this – and even though it was me who lost his camera, ...

• I feel like a pelican

  Posted on Tuesday July 21st, 2009 at 07:37 in photos, jokes, pelican

  Who knew pelicans would elicit more pelicans? Buckets sent me this gorgeous photo of some pelicans he took at Innamincka, South Australia.  It’s near the border of Queensland and New South Wales. Beyond, well beyond, the so-called Black Stump....

• Albany Pelicans

  Posted on Sunday July 19th, 2009 at 00:49 in photos, western australia, albany, pelican, wa

  There’s something special about pelicans… they fly in like a squadron of bomber aircraft and land with pin point accuracy on their target. I travelled to Albany this week and discovered how beautiful a place it is. I took these photos dow...

• Mulled wine and fried mice

  Posted on Sunday June 28th, 2009 at 07:54 in photos, extracurricular, wa

  Just back from Europe Groover and I ventured down to Clancy’s to catch up with some friends who are freshly returned from their first trip to Europe. I thought they had been rather carefree and adventurous by not planning every step of their jo...

• Better days in Bunbury

  Posted on Wednesday June 17th, 2009 at 09:48 in Photography, photos, underpants, bunbury, wa, lord forrest hotel

  The Lord Forrest Hotel has seen them. I’m in Bunbury for a meeting or several.  It’s a fairly quick drive from Perth.  About two hours and when the bypass gets completed even quicker. I was thinking about staying down in Dunsborough bu...

• Isn’t she lovely…

  Posted on Monday May 11th, 2009 at 02:26 in baby, family, parenting, photos, melbourne, niece

  How beautiful is my new little niece?! And how clever my sister in law? Okay… and I know you had something to do with it my brother but lets face it - your real work starts now! Love.  Love.  Love....
