Cute Photos of Cygnets to Make Your Day
We’re giving Midweek Moment a miss this week as Monique’s been flat-out at work. I thought I’d bring you some photos anyway, in the hope they’ll brighten your day as they did mine. Some weeks I find it hard to squeeze in the time for...
Midweek Moment #56 and #57—A 2-for-1 Special!
Life swept Monique and I up in a whirlwind last week so we weren’t able to share a Midweek Moment. My excuses are two book launches, a trip down south, and kid commitments. I’m also trying to make inroads into Novel #2 and preparing my website for an...
Midweek Moment #55: Golden Sunsets
At the lake where I walk, about halfway around the path there’s gap in the fence. If I nip through, there’s a dirt track that takes me past the line of Moreton Bay figs, out through the rushes, and into a marshy area that juts out into the lake. I need my...
Midweek Moment #51: Lake Life
Once again, Monique and I have been of similar minds: Both of us have visited nearby lakes and captured the bird life. For me, the lake at sunset is like a balm. The softer light, its golden glow, and the longer shadows. Oftentimes, the surface of the water is so...
Midweek Moment #48—Winter Light and Colour
It’s mid-winter and even in sunny Perth the moss is flourishing. It’s crept into our garden—over and between the pavers on the shady side of the house, and up the retaining walls. At the Lake the other day, I spotted it climbing the tree trunks, as if to...
Midweek Moment #47
They might be a bit late, but our Moments this week are still and serene: Earlier in the week, I spent an hour down at the lake photographing the bird life. I find that place so soothing, not just for the images of water, birds, and plant life, but also for the...
Midweek Moment #46
Monique and I love the opportunities the rain brings, although I’m more of a summer person—well, most of me is, except my skin. Blue skies are inviting, and I feel more energetic, and want to venture out for walks and photos. I whinge when it’s grey and...
Midweek Moment #45
Monique and I are trying something different this week: Instead of posting a single photo, we’re posting a series. By bringing you more photos, we’ll (hopefully) give you more enjoyment! I spotted these flowers in St Kilda Botanical Gardens when I was in...
Midweek Moment #44—Winter Leaves
It’s been a strange week, one that’s made me feel grateful for my family and our health. Last week, my daughter fell from her bike and fractured her collar bone. She lives in Melbourne, on the other side of the country, so I flew over to be with her. My...
Midweek Moment #43 – Bird-Spotting
Without each other’s knowledge, both Monique and I went out bird-spotting this week: Monique visited the Wellard Wetlands, near Baldivis, and recommends it for those who love bird-spotting and taking photos. The bird life was relatively quiet because it was the...
