07.02.2010- Gerbera

I love gerbera because whenever I need to de-stress

the flowers' brightly coloured petals instantly cheers me up.

Today, I took a different perspective... 

the back of the flower gives me a feeling of real calm peace~

something I need a hell of a lot in the coming 2 and a bit weeks.

20.01.2010- night shot at Northbridge

Been tagging along to hubby's night fishing adventure...

he's hooked on this location at the moment

so I've been to the same spot 3 times in the past 5 days.

First time, it was drizzling 

so I was just limited to taking photos from the car window

Second time, I forgot my tripod, 

but met this fishing guy who taught me a few tricks

(which included making use of the wheelie bin as a tripod...

and I later adapted it to the top of our car)

So tonight, 

I've managed to equip myself with the right stuff for the photo shoot

but I still forgot to bring something... 

the all important mozzie repellent spray...

I have quite a few bites on my toes and the bottom of my feet!!!
