Birdies - Photography

First amazing up-close photo(s) of a bird! Thanks to my parents who took it for me! :D



Pebble Rocks - Photography

It's the best when it starts to rain - and rain heavily! Everything just looks so livened up and fresh and you cannot resist taking photos of anything after the rain! These particular photos show how the rain gives off a nice fresh feel to things when it touches it. I especially like these photos because theres so much going on and I like how the pebbles are drowning under, alsmot looks like a reflection!



Pretty Clover - Photography

Who knew pretty things like these clovers existed in my backyard? What a find! The thing that I think makes these photos look really awesome would be the dew drops from the rain that poured just before I took these photos. It reminds me of some nice fantasy mystical world... and seems to have this mysterious feel about it. The pink tints on the clovers make everything even more fascinating. Do such things exist? Because, I swear, it's the first time I ever saw a pink tinted clover!



Perspective - Photography

Feels so good when your camera can do little magic tricks like putting things into perspective! I love how this really stands out from the background - I have no idea how I managed to make it all blurry... must have pressed some button. Oh yes! The close-up button. That's the one.

Amidst - Photography

What a chance! Walking around in my backyard and to see this feather lying amongst the soil of a plant... it looked pretty spectacular: seemingly blending in with the soil itself.



Fly Thing - Photography

I'd say it's my first capture of a living, moving thing... I had to get so close and just as I got to a really good distance, it flew away! But at least this turned out good!

Pretty Princess - Photography

I ALMOST didn't see this photo. But doesn't matter, I think it deserves to be apart from the rest! My favourite one! She looks so sweet!

Yellow - Photography

I have nothing to say but STUNNING! I was suprised myself. I love the water dew drops that hang in each pedal. I seriously don't know what else to say!

Photogenic Mema - Photography

I don't know what it is, but EVERY TIME I take a photo of this little cutie it always turns out amazing! I probably have posted heaps of photos of her by now but I simply cannot resist! She had come over just generally, wanting me to do her nails (paint them). And then she saw this head accessory that I had - a Melbourne Cup look-ish clip and I thought: 'Let's see how this turns out'. Here are the results. Completely flabbergasted me. I hope she stays photogenic throughout her life. Everyone loves to look good in a photo, don't we?

Old Age Beauty - Photography

A photo of my grandmother pressing her lips together.

 

Daddy's Favourite Plant - Photography

What a capture! My dad bought these just recently - a newcomer to our garden! Full of colour and sharpness - you do not want to go near them!

 

White Rock - Photography

Captured this with no real intention of taking it at a good angle. It turned out pretty awesome! I love how the white rock is just shining through and looks as if it is stuck between. And I like how the white rock overpowers the others - it really sets a scene!



Mark Powell - Artist

Mark Powell is a London-based artist who, with his recent work, has chosen the back of old envelopes as a convas for these delicately rendered portraits of the elderly, using nothing more than a standard Bic Biro pen to create the delicate folds and wrinkles of their skin. I love everything about these works! Absolutely fantastic!

Seashells - Photography

I just love the collection of seashells here. It reminds me of a treasure hunt or something.

Junk - Photography

I'm still trying to figure out if this is an artwork or just random pieces of junk... I took this photo at the 2009 Sculpture by the Sea Exhibition, so that's why I'm curious. It looks more like a random junk pitt to me... what do you think?

Car Accident - Photography

When I went overseas in 2010, on about our second day there, we had a major car incident. It was terrifying! It was the first time I was ever involved in such a major crash. These photos show the impact of the crash. It was a head-on collision with a truck. Apparently, the owner of the truck had an accident a few days or weeks earlier, and the cause was because he had a faulty break. Who drives with a faulty car? Luckily we all got out of there safe and sound. My mother only injured her ankle and heel but that got repaired in the 6 weeks we stayed overseas. My uncle softly injured his neck. I don't know if it's healed or anything. Hopefully it has. That's about all that happened. Don't even ask what the police did... they are so stupid over there. Someone needs to slap them out...



Peace - Photography

This would be the first EVER photo I took with my SLR camera. And because it turned out to be a great capture, I thought: 'This camera is going to rock my world!'

Coo-Coo Clock - Photography

We've had this coo-coo clock for about 11 years now or so, and it still works! I'm thinking of selling it one day... maybe when it reaches its 20 year peak. Could possibly earn a fortune! You never know... but then again, it's been with us throughout our lives in Australia. Maybe not, then...



Kiss Kiss - Photography

My FAVOURITE picture of all time! Love it! Love it! Love it! It was the day when we went to Stanwell Park. My brother took this photo of me kissing my cute little cousin. Perfect capture! And she was cranky that day... so we were lucky that she smiled for this take!

Inscriptions - Photography

From my two weeks of going to the National Art School last year, I never noticed the detail of the trees near Hyde Park and the Anzac Memorial. It happened to be on the last day when my friend and I were passing quite close near the trees that I noticed. I was astounded! The other thing too was the fact that the trees were white! Completely white! All the trees had little 'love inscriptions' on them - it was like a personal artwork of an artist! I'm glad I spotted this...
