This is a picture of a Gerbera that I took when in full flower and I’ve been letting it dry out. I love the delicate petals and I had to be extremely careful when moving the flower around as it was coming apart – like dandelion spores!!

Gardenia flowers have a beautiful sweet scent. The flowers can be white or yellow and are produced singly or in semi-double and double forms along or at the ends of branches. The perfume from this flower filled the house for almost a week – it was beautiful. This photo is currently featured in the group “Simply White” on RedBubble.
Found this lady bird / lady beetle at Shorncliffe this morning. There were literally hundreds of lady birds in the knee high grass and a lot of different varieties as well. I had a ball taking pictures.
This beautiful rose is found at New Farm park. The perfume was very special. Canon 400d macro lens – 100mm f/2.8 USM lens and twin lite flash. Featured in the flower and foliage detail group on the 11/12/2008

This Pincushion Plant originates from South Africa. It’s a stunning plant and makes for a great cut flower. This was taken using the Canon Macro 100mm lens and the stamens you see unfurling are only 2 or 3 mm across at the most. I used an orange background to help bring out the orange in the ‘pincushions’.
These Olives were grown at Yallamundi plantation located near Millmerran in South-East Queensland.
