Spring Wildflowers
I visited a local reserve (area of natural bushland) today. It was so much better than I anticipated. My aim was to take close-up photos of flowers. I still have lots to learn about using my DSLR camera but about 50% of the photos came out okay. Better luck next time! Here are some images of the native vegetation. Much of it is quite unique to South Western Australia. Here is a link from Wikipedia […]
Orchids continued …

I love orchids!
Last Saturday I went to an Orchid Show and took lots of photos. They were amazing. I will share some images of them in my next few posts. I hope you enjoy the show.

When I got home I asked my neighbour if I could take some photos of the flowers in her front garden and […]
Day 2 of 7 photos in 7 days
This is my offering for today. I really must get out a bit more so I have a bigger range of photo options! The jasmine is flowering beautifully at the moment. I wish I could include the perfume with the photo.
Flowers – garden and gifts
Roses Pansies Australian natives I was lucky to be given two bunches of flowers recently. The soft pink roses and the Australian natives. I always like to photograph them so I can enjoy them long after their use-by date. The pansies are from my garden.
