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.
Monochrome Wednesday – Lines in a lily
It was back out to the garden to capture the lines in a lily for Monochrome Wednesday today. Lilies are great subjects for monochrome.
Floral Friday – Locked in my garden
Yes, you read that right, I was locked in my garden while trying to get photos for Floral Friday. Okay, I wasn’t locked in the garden, but I was locked out of the house. Unbelievable.
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 – Jigsaws of flowers
Something a bit different for Floral Friday as I am looking for flowers that would make good jigsaws. This is something I need your help with.
Floral Friday – Looking back some macro images
Today for Floral Friday I thought I might try looking back at some macro images. I like doing this from time to time. It is a good opportunity to show images again.
Floral Friday – Light hitting a Tulip
It is time for my Floral Friday post and today I was keen to work on a photo of a tulip that the light was hitting it in an unusual way. I tend to hate […]
Influencing Me – Still Life
Today for my Influencing Me post I thought we might have a quick look at Still Life in art. My examples are paintings, but we are seeing more and more photographic still life as well.
Floral Friday – Dahlias
The dahlias are finished for the year, but I thought it might be nice to take another look at them for Floral Friday. I can’t wait for them to be back.
Floral Friday – Dunedin Botanical Gardens
For the Floral Friday post today I thought it might be nice to show you some photos I took when visiting the Dunedin Botanical Gardens. I took a few, but have only prepared three.
Macro class at Alowyn Gardens
Yesterday I ran a macro photography class at Alowyn Gardens. Seems I can’t get away from teaching and I’m planning on doing more.
Floral Friday – Flower from Dunedin
Today seemed like a good day to do a Floral Friday post with a flower I photographed from Dunedin. It is a quick post.
Favourite Flower 2 – Chrysanthemums
Last week I mentioned Dahlias and this week I wanted to tell you about the 2nd flower that is a favourite of mine, chrysanthemums. Every time I think of them I remember that scene from […]
Monochrome Wednesday – Cosmos
Since we have been looking at so many macro shots it seemed like a good idea to use one of those for Monochrome Wednesday. This is a cosmos flower that I photographed at the Melbourne […]
Favourite flowers – Dahlias
When you love macro photography, especially when photographing flowers we get ones that we love or become our favourite. For me, mine would have to be dahlias.
Influencing Me – Leslie Gleim
A year or so ago I was going to post work by Leslie Gleim, but it didn’t happen, I stopped doing the posts. Today I am happy to show you Leslie’s work for my Influencing […]
The show is over
The Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show is over for the year and now I have 100’s of photos that I will need to sort through. Once that is done I can work out which […]
Influencing Me – Paul Barson
Macro photography is something I’ve always enjoyed doing. However, processing it has been something that took me some time to work out. When I first discovered Influencing Me – Paul Barson‘s work, I would be […]
Weekend Wanderings – End of Season
Sometimes you have to know when it is the right time to visit places. It seems for this Weekend Wanderings post my recent visit to the Blue Lotus Water Gardens was a bust as it […]
Something different from the Blue Lotus Gardens
Finally, got out again today to the Blue Lotus Water Gardens. It is nice to get another visit in, though many of the water lilies are done, but we did manage to get something different.
