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...
Midweek Moment #42—Autumn’s Ebb
Our Midweek Moment is full of Autumn colour: After the storms at the weekend, and as Autumn ebbs and the air chills, many of the trees are already stripped bare. However, the skies cleared briefly yesterday morning, and I managed to find some sunlight and colour....
My Month
It’s been a while since I’ve written an update here, hence this post covers a month rather than a week. Thank goodness for Midweek Moments, which have kept this blog ticking over whilst I’ve been otherwise occupied. I have a reason for...
Midweek Moment #41—Rural and Rustic
This week, we’ve gone rural and rustic: I’ve not had much time for photography lately and the photos I took were a little boring, so I’ve dipped into the archives: A couple of weeks’ ago, my husband and I returned to Tasmania for my...
Midweek Moment #40—The Kookaburra and the Wagtail: A Story in Pictures, and the Centre of a Flower
This week I’m posting a series of photos for our Midweek Moment: While walking the dogs yesterday, I noticed a kookaburra sitting alone on the branch of an old gum tree. It tilted its head as if contemplating life at the lake. A willy wagtail perched on a...
Midweek Moment #39
This week’s Midweek Moments are all about homecomings: we’ve both chosen moody river shots of our cities of origin. At the weekend, my husband and I took a quick trip back to Launceston, Tasmania, for a family wedding. On Sunday morning, we walked around...
