Shoreline

May 13, 2016

Shoreline
One more from the Botanical Beach/Botany Bay series. This continues the walk around the headland and towards Botany Bay. Much of the beach here is flat, rocky and littered with tide pools and hundreds of species of plants and animals. But I find the shoreline with its raw, rough texture and limited colour palette captivating.

I’m thinking that the black and white conversion below might not translate well on some screens, but at full size, the texture and detail come alive here on a 5K screen:

Oregon Grape Colour

May 6, 2016

Dry Leaf
A small treasure from our morning dog walk through the forest. The forest seems very dry for this time of year and many of the Oregon Grape leaves are brightly coloured like this one.

Cameron thought I might like to photograph it on a piece of white paper placed on the deck. Good idea. But he was fast asleep before I was finished…

Deep in the Forest

April 11, 2016

Deep in the Forest
Deep in a majestic forest, this artistic gathering stands silent. In the foreground is a living stump. We don’t seem to be making any more old growth; let’s keep what remains.
