  • Feet up

    We went camping over the June long weekend to Kilkivan – a tiny town up in the hinterlands west of Gympie. Much time was spent around the campfire sheltering from the occasional bout of misty rain, toasting our feet and chatting.

  • Rolled up

    Due to some delicious paid days off, I have been wandering around with the camera taking advantage of the afternoon light, and my never-ending delight in taking macro shots of ordinary things. I like these simple wooden blinds we have on the verandah – they keep off the direct sunlight, and are easy enough to…

  • More cupcakes

    More cupcake deliciousness. I think I need a cupcake stand like that.

  • Cupcakes

    I went to my first baby shower on the weekend – the first pregnancy among my contemporaries, really, and a slightly alarming reminder of passing years. The afternoon’s refreshments – pavlova (well, it wouldn’t be an Australian celebration without a pav) and super cute pink and blue cupcakes. I am thinking that I want to…

  • I joined a cult

    Ever since I decided I wanted to buy a hair straightener, I had so many people say earnestly to me, “You Must Get A GHD. It Is The Only Way,” that I decided to obey them. I’ve always been interested in cults, now I get to experience one. And my hair loves me for it.

  • Day 8 – Pink wipers

    I replaced the very common-place black windscreen wiper blades on my car with these lurid pink ones.

  • Day 4 – Lock

    The lock on the front door of our house – I tried to take a photo of the handle with my reflection in it, but blurred them.  I’m thinking I should start using the tripod more, even when I don’t think I need it.

  • Day 3 – Bugger

    Yep, that’s how bad I am at resolutions and new projects – it only took two days for me to forget to take a photo!  I thought for a moment that I had snapped one of the kittens on my phone, but alas, it was blurred and I’d deleted it right away.  I think I’ll…

  • Day 2 – Shawl

    It is the middle of summer, but I was wearing a sleeveless top, and it looked like rain – hence the shawl draped over the chair in my office, just in case. I did end up putting it over my head on the way to work, as it was drizzling and I’d forgotten my umbrella.…

  • New year

    Well, some might consider over a week into the new year a little late to be starting with the resolutions, but I’m doing so anyway – inspired by a variety of things, but most recently Chookooloonks photography blog, I decided to jump on the Project 365 bandwagon. It’s not too complicated – take at least…
