Trying the Fujifilm macro lens
I have been loaned the Fujifilm XF80mmF2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro lens again, but this time I am trying to decide if I really want it.
The dahlias are planted
It is that time of the year. I’ve been out in the garden a lot in the last few weeks, and there will be more posts on that to come. However, while I was weeding […]
Right now it is all about the garden
Spring has sprung and it is full speed ahead for the garden getting it ready for summer.
Trying to get my act together.
Really I am, but I am finding it so hard. Being a housewife means I don’t have a lot of time, yeah I’m kidding. I just don’t seem to be into social media as I […]
Excursions to take photos
Well, yeah I know, I’m being too slack. I think since I have started working on YouTube it is so much easier to just talk.
A new video where I’m talking to you
I’ve been trying to work up to this and I finally did a new video where I’m talking to you. I have revealed myself, so to speak, or my face at least.
Springtime in my garden
The last few days I’ve been out in my garden weeding, so too tired, but here is a touch of springtime. The flowers are starting to come out.
Floral Friday – There is a good reason
There is a good reason why floral Friday is late, and that would be that I don’t have a lot of access to my computer at the moment.
Monochrome Madness – A dahlia
We have put ourselves in self-isolation so for monochrome madness I have done a dahlia in black and white. It was a quick process.
Floral Friday late but not cancelled
Yes, that’s right Floral Friday is very late, but not cancelled, unlike many other events around Australia at the moment. For me, the worst one is the flower and garden show.
Floral Friday – New flowers in the garden
While my dahlias are going well there are new flowers in the garden and I thought I would share them with you today for Floral Friday. Two are new and one is just reflowering.
Floral Friday – More Dahlias
For floral Friday I wanted to you some more dahlias from my garden that have started flowering. There are 12 plants and now 5 of them are flowering.
Floral Friday – First Dahlia
My garden has it’s first dahlia flowering and I thought I would share it with you for Floral Friday. I am really looking forward to seeing more in the months to come.
Want some more information about macro photography?
So exactly, do you want some more information about macro photography? I have found a video that will help explain how extension tubes work.
Floral Friday – the garden today
Floral Friday is hard to do at the moment as the weather has played havoc, but I thought I would try and show the garden today.
Some videos to give you ideas
It is summer here and winter in the Northern Hemisphere and so today I thought it would be good to show some videos to give you ideas on what you can shoot at this time […]
Floral Friday – Flowers with the Velvet 56
Last week I took the Lensbaby Velvet 56 to Alowyn Gardens to get flowers with it and I thought it would be a good post for Floral Friday.
Floral Friday – Back to my garden
We haven’t been to my garden for floral Friday for a while and I thought it might be nice to get back into it. Still, not a lot going on.
Cranbourne Botanical Gardens – Native Flowers
A couple of weeks ago a friend took me to the Cranbourne Botanical Gardens that feature many Australian Native flowers. It is a great place to see many.
Floral Friday – My second garden
I know I said that I would do Floral Friday images from my garden, but it has to be said that Alowyn Gardens is like my second garden.
