This is a photo of some lovely flowers Groover gave me last week. They have opened so beautifully, so slowly that we really have enjoyed them but the reason for the post is to show you the capability of his new Google phone. I think it has some fancy filters applied but even so, pretty [...]

It’s been a bit cold and wet in Perth over the last few days and truth be told it does feel like winter. In East Perth autumn leaves pile in drifts and then wilt flat against the pavement. Today there are blue skies and if you hadn’t been outside you might even think it was [...]
I took this photo down at Cottesloe beach. You know the usual fifty photos of a seagull and then it takes off and you get lucky. I love the feeling this photo evokes for me. Taking flight. The energy. The upward momentum. How good must it feel?
Or is my daughter beautiful? Girl you are so gorgeous I think we might have to become Amish. Only 12! Colour version on Flickr
Before we get into 2010, here are a few of my favourite Christmas pics: This is Groover and Dippity on Christmas Eve at Groover’s brother’s house. This is my nephew. I love the way he is so into the cracker. This is Groover’s mum on Christmas night. This photo is taken by Dippity who has [...]

I have this big wall calendar on my pin-up board and hopefully my colleagues noted my reminder! The date jumps out at me from everywhere. My colleagues have bought me a present but it doesn’t arrive for a few days… intrigued? I am. So one of them bought me some earrings – just to tide [...]
This week, I heart faces is celebrating breast cancer awareness month with Pink Week. So let me tell you the story of this photo. On Saturday I went for my regular walk along the seafront at Cottesloe. We usually walk all the way to Swanborne and back. Nearing the Swanborne end we came across one [...]
