Macro Flowers

By Emily | Published April 8, 2013

This weekend the weather was really beautiful and I just wanted to be outside, so I chucked my Macro Lens on played around photographing so beautiful flowers.

All photos were taken with my 105mm Macro Lens and then edited in Lightroom. I am having way to much fun with Lightroom and seeing what it can do to my photos. Macro1

I have been going through the photos of my iPhone today and I though I would share some of my favorites.

 

 

 

These are some of my favorites there are tons and tons of them and most of them are instagram photos or photos I’ve edited in to a square format just because I like it really.

Have a great day !

Autumn

By Emily | Published May 8, 2012

It’s Autumn here in Australia and its one of my favorite seasons, i love the cols crisp mornings, the fog and the frost and then beautiful crystal clear blue days.

But my favorite thing about autumn is all the leaves. Have a great day everyone !

Interruption

The other day I was trying to practice some flower photography and Lily decided she wanted the flower, nothing was going to get between her and her prey. Which if you know her is quite funny she’s actually terrified of anything bigger than a moth unless of course there is a window pane between her and what ever she is hunting then she’s as brave as any lion. Here is the huntress in all her glory.

Attacking the vicious gerbera.

Crushing the gerbera into submission.

When enemies become friends.

Kevin the Flower

This is Kevin, well one of Kevin’s flowers at least. The reason this plant has a name is ever since I was a child any plant or flower I try to raise always dies. I gave Kevin his name last year mostly as a joke when we brought him home from Bunnings. However when he didn’t die three weeks after we planted him like I expected I continued to call him Kevin and he continued not dying, better he even flourished. So two years and counting I’m hoping Kevin has a long life.
