Floral Friday – Spring is almost here according to my garden
Each day when I go out into my garden, it seems new things are flowering and new growth is coming out of the ground. It is a tense time as I wait to see what […]
My Lensbaby Lenses and the beauty of them
I found this post in the private section of my blog. I am hoping it isn’t one that I haven’t published before. It was set for 2021, so no idea what has happened with it. […]
Floral Friday – Trying an ON1 preset on some infrared flowers
I thought I might try doing some photos this week using one of the presets I’ve made in ON1 Photo Raw 2025. I don’t think it is lazy, but I like seeing what you end […]
Floral Friday – Finding a different way to show my infrared flower images
I just want to apologise for not being around this week. I have had trouble with Photoshop, and when I asked for help, it almost stopped working completely. The ON1 wouldn’t load or open, so […]
Floral Friday – Revisiting the lilies at a water garden
It has been a few years since I went to the Blue Lotus Water Gardens and I think I have to make an effort to go again. I was planning on going this last summer, […]
Floral Friday – A tribute to the flowers last summer
I’ve made videos before, but it has been a while. Part of that reason is because I lost Camtasia. When I replaced the hard disk in my laptop last year I didn’t save the program. […]
Floral Friday – Trying to do the same thing that I did last week
Last week I used one preset from ON1 Photo Raw 2025 to use on my infrared flowers. I wanted to see if it was possible and what you would get. I did use one of […]
Floral Friday – Using the same on each infrared flower photo
I decided to do something very different for Floral Friday this week. It isn’t anything new to use infrared flowers taken with my infrared camera. It is also nothing new to use ON1 Photo Raw […]
Floral Friday – Flowers from past seasons Part 1
Though these flowers are not from that long ago, they were taken back at the start of autumn. There isn’t much in the garden now, but I am thankful that I took lots of photos […]
Floral Friday – Pressing autumn leaves to make them last
The day I went and took all the photos of the autumn leaves outside, I also collected a heap of them. I put them in paper towel and between boards to flattern them so they […]
Floral Friday – More from the infrared camera in the garden
I suspect the photos today are from one of the first times I photographed my flowers with my infrared camera. It was around the time I started realising how gorgeous the photos were if you […]
Floral Friday – Autumnal colours in my garden
Not really flowers this week, but a different look in my garden. There are colours everywhere, but not from flowers. We are now in winter, but autumn was very late this year, and the trees […]
Floral Friday – Some flowers from last summer
I found a folder of flower photos that I hadn’t done anything with. They were taken last summer, and I guess I had been taking so many that some were just forgotten about. I am […]
Floral Friday – A tribute to my macro photography in 2024
Today I just wanted to do a quick post and show photos that I took last year. I went through every folder of colour images and picked one from each one, and here are the […]
Floral Friday – Applying my presets to the flowers from my garden
As you may have guessed from the title I am playing around with ON1 Photo RAW 2025 more as I try to figure out how to do my own presets. It is funny how you […]
Floral Friday – Using presets in ON1 to process some flower photos
Presets, love em, hate em. I don’t know, but I’m starting to realise that they can be good especially if you have a style that you like to apply to all your photos. So my […]
Floral Friday – A few flowers left in the garden
There isn’t a lot out there anymore, though the chrysanthemums are still looking beautiful but nearly everything else is dying off or getting ready for winter, whenever that arrives. I went out the other day […]
Floral Friday – Infrared at Heide Museum of Modern Art
Yesterday I went to Heide, Museum of Modern Art in Bulleen with my friend Chris. I haven’t been there for quite a few years so it was nice to go back. I decided that I […]
Floral Friday – The mums are starting to flower in the garden
It is almost Mother’s Day here in Australia and one of the flowers that is always out for this are the Chrysanthemums and I’m so happy that I have a great selection of them out […]
Floral Friday – In the garden this week
Since I was trying to get photos in the garden the other day for Monochrome Madness I couldn’t help taking some photos of flowers that are still out there now. I did the same with […]
