Looking at old gear
The Fujifilm macro lens is going back this week and I have to get back to using my old gear for macro photography. One of the things that has been hanging around for a few […]
Floral Friday – Outside with the Velvet 56
Now that I have the Fujifilm X-T3 I find I’m limited when it comes to macro, but I did get the Lensbaby Velvet 56 for it and the photos for Floral Friday were taken with […]
Floral Friday – The start of October
We are now at the start of October and the weather is getting warmer so I went out in the garden today to get some photos for Floral Friday.
Floral Friday – Mum’s Garden
When I knew I was coming up here to the Mallee I thought it would be nice to show some photos from Mum’s garden for Floral Friday.
Floral Friday – The X-T3 for flowers
Since my big news yesterday I thought it might be good to show some flowers that were taken with the X-T3 for Floral Friday.
Floral Friday – Alowyn Gardens
Today I was out at Alowyn Gardens and I thought it might be good to do a post on the place for Floral Friday. Though I wasn’t there to take photos.
Floral Friday – Mum’s garden again
It was good to see you enjoying Floral Friday last week with my mum’s garden, so I thought I would show it again. This time it was just after the rain.
Floral Friday with some results
It is Friday again and what a week it has been. My head is still reeling from what has been happening. I thought, along with Floral Friday that we might also look at some of […]
A Yellow Flower today
A quick one today, just the yellow flower taken with my D850 and the Lensbaby Velvet 85. It is in my garden, but I have no idea what it is.
Floral Friday: Bee popping in
Here is one from a while ago. While taking photos of poppies I couldn’t resist trying to get the bee as well.
Floral Friday: Flowers in the Rain
A couple of weeks ago I was at Alowyn Gardens taking photos of the flowers before and after the rain. Water drops on flowers are fantastic, they really bring out the colours of the flowers.
Floral Friday: Bee in a Poppy
The title sort of says it all. Watching the bees playing around in the poppies was great fun. They roll around in them, if you have never see it, take at look at the poppies […]
Floral Friday: Flowing bulbs
Unfortunately I have no idea what these are, I want to say snow drops, but I am probably wrong.
Floral Friday – Flowers from a couple of visits
Last weekend I taught my first macro photography class. It went well I think. I had a friend doing the class and she said she thought it was good.
Velvet 85: doing more than flowers
On my last visit to Alowyn Gardens I took the Lensbaby Velvet 85 with me. I have had it on loan for a few weeks now, and the gardens are a great place to take […]
Floral Friday – Alowyn Gardens
Usually for these posts I show you a close up of a flower, but I thought it might be nice to show you one of Alowyn Gardens with the wisteria out in full bloom.
Floral Friday
A poppy from Alowyn Gardens. Taking photos of it last week and watching the bees having a great time.

Floral Friday: Velvet series
Yesterday, I had a trip to Alowyn Gardens. I think it is one of the best places to test lenses for macro photography. Right now there are flowers everywhere. It was fantastic to see it […]
