Outback Landscape

Isn’t it funny how we love photographing buildings that are falling down?!

Multitasking: a master class

I travelled today with my 8 week old. Of course half way there I had to stop to attend to a meltdown. Sitting on the bank of the Murray River at Blanchetown in South Australia I had to feed him.
This was snapped on my Galaxy mid feed and cropped and edited on Snapseed. Well I had a hand free, mustn’t waste an opportunity while I’m out of the house. The clarity could be better, you can’t expect miracles from a phone camera with no option to move around to get the shot!

I love the dead trees at this place in the river. I hope one day when I have more time to come back with my DSLR.

A Few From My Garden – Galaxy Photography

I was fortunate enough today to have the chance to be out in my garden enjoying the blooming flowers in my garden. I only had my phone with me, but here are a few photos from my world.

I don’t think David Austin expected his beautiful roses to come with Australian flies attached.

I went walking. What did you see?

I saw graffiti carved in a tree.

Mem Fox anyone??

Weekly Photo Challenge: through my eyes

The world as it appeared to me standing by the jetty of Lake Bonney in Barmera, South Australia. I was using my camera phone but still trying to find the best perspective. What do you think? A, B, C or D?

Stills of Summer 7

The sunset the other night. Taken through Australian gumtrees.

not sure I like this photo, but the sky was incredible

Stills of Summer 6

A different jetty. This time I had to zoom. This is the extent of my zoom. I was a million miles away. I was impressed that it still produced a clear image that froze the jumpers.

You can still see the splash from the previous jumper. The mother in me says that kid needs talking to about safety. The photographer in me says I should talk to them about jumping in synchronisation.

Australian Native Flowers

Grevilleas come in different colours. Here are a few in my mother’s garden. There is so much to look at in just one flower!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Foreign

I little bit of India in a rural Australian town. Actually this place makes pizza so it was a true merging of cultures.

 

Macro Month: Day 25

These beautifully colourful flowers are Gazanias. They are native to Southern Africa, but grow like weeds on the sides of the roads in country South Australia. I must say that if we must have weeds, I am glad they are so colourful. They make the roadsides beautiful! I got a bit carried away with photographs and I couldn’t pick just one (or two, or three) so here are a lot of photos of Gazanias!
