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!
