"To me, photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place... I've found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.”

Weekend Flowers: Beauty in my Street
After a lovely Friday afternoon with my two youngest Ben & Bec, I went for a walk with my camera. The plan was to photograph the sulphur crested cockatoos that congregate on the street corner. Sadly they flew away, so I decided it was a perfect opportunity to get some flower shots for "Weekend Flowers".
I love these little pink daisies:
This African Iris is growing along our back fence:
These beautiful rose buds are in a neighbours front garden:
The same neighbour has rows of lavender... I had no idea this little creature was on the flower!!
And even these weeds have a beauty of their own...
Shame the birds flew away but you still got some great photos instead. Those little daisies look so very pretty - you must have been tempted to take some home and put in a vase. Such a clever and interesting perspective you've taken with the iris-really lovely work.
Your pictures are gorgeous! I especially love the first photo. Amazing!
