Grey day a couple of days ago so fiddling around in Photoshop and this little gem popped up. Had a little ‘oh, I like that!’ moment. Love it when my garden gives me those. Not sure what the flower is, but they look really cool in a vase with …
Now that my garden’s roses are starting to bloom, it’s time to get the camera out and indulge a bit. Just playing around this afternoon with the most perfect pale apricot rose. Grabbed my close up filters to put on the front of my macro lens for the first …
Stunning display of Lupins in Mosgiel park on my short walk before getting groceries this morning. Just in love with the colours, patterns and intricacy of them all.
I had another look at "Remembered Love" and reworked it with a slightly more gothic feel. Not sure which I like best - the light ethereal feel or the edgier, somewhat darker, Victorian version. You choose which one is your favourite - I like them both equally. Click here …
