A dainty, elegant and lovely flower…...Cosmos.
A simple reminder that no matter where we are in life, we’re not alone. God is there to share our burdens. I’ve given this card to friends as an encouragement when they are going through hard times.
I love finding the extraordinary in the ordinary. This image of the underside of an Osteospermum flower, exposes beautiful detail that usually goes unnoticed.
How can we complain about aphids on our plants when they attract these delightful predators?
The underside of an Osteospermum flower against the blue of the sky. This image won first prize in the The Horticultural Media Association’s, 2007 Joy Harland Memorial Photographic Competition.
This image shows the stunning coloured bracts of Leucadendron salignum ‘Devils Blush’.
I love observing the detail in flower buds. The bud of the Cosmos is very interesting to view close up, although they mostly go unnoticed next to its beautiful flowers.
Callistemon ‘Candy Pink’. A beautiful bottlebrush with amazing detail when observed closely.
I’m in awe of God and his amazing designs! His creation inspires me to worship Him.
This viola has a happy face! It sprang up from seed several years after the original plant had died.
This photo was taken at Floriade Tulip Festival in Canberra, Australia.
It was the beautiful bud of this flower that I first captured my attention and inspired me to bring out the camera.

This tulip field watercolour, along with my charcoal drawing of an eagle, won Wyndham City Council’s, Cultural Encouragment Award 2008. It’s painted on A3 watercolour paper that’s over 185gsm. We were told in my year 11 art class to have a quick experiment with a medium that we haven’t really used before, so I decided to try watercolour. I started with the tulip just to the left of the center and couldn’t really stop! I used the dry watercolours that you then wet, – of artist quality. What I really like about watercolour is the way that you can so easily create different tones in your colours just by adding more water, that and the fact that you can wet again and remove if you’re not happy with it. I actually became quite attached to the single paint brush I used for this painting, so much so that when I snapped it half way through, I got some strong tape, stuck it back together and finished the painting with the same brush!!!!
Echinacea purpurea Yet another plant that I bought especially to photograph!
This image is of a pink Pelargonium. I’ve used this verse in the hope that I may be of encouragement to someone else, only to be challenged that I need to take more of my concerns to God and to be thankful for the peace I’ve experienced when we share the load.
This Emu was very happy to pose for me at the Melbourne Zoo. I fell in love with its eyes!
Meerkats are so cute to observe. This little one was photographed at the Melbourne Zoo.
I made this image in photoshop by merging layers of a couple of my photos then adjusting the colours and adding a filter.
Here I stand! Inspiration for this design came from doing a bible study on the topic of grace. This is a statement of where I stand before God, even though I don’t deserve this awesome gift. I bought myself this tee in ‘Asphalt’ colour. It’s now my favourite t-shirt!
This image captures the opening bud of Corymbia ficifolia ‘Wildfire’, which is a spectacular, dwarf flowering gum tree.
