photo delights

Insect light trails- another inspirational idea from Photojojo (geez I love those people).

Night Sea

Collage and ink inspired by a dream.

Massive relief for people with taste...

O.K., I normally wouldn't bother paying too much attention to the latest fashions, but after what seems like aeons of hideous 80's revival clothing, and what I like to call "hooker" clothes, it seems we may be about to recover a sense of style and dignity. Of course if I was very wealthy and could buy hand-made and designed clothes, none of this would matter, but since I'm not and have to buy my clothes from your basic High St shops, my relief is massive.
I expect it will take a little while to filter down from the couture heights, but apparently designers like Marc Jacobs, Dries Van Noten and Prada are leading the way...phew.

Scissors from Japan

Just couldn't resist ordering a pair of these from Yozo Craft in Japan (found via Paper Crave).
Now even if my collages aren't coming together as hoped, I can still admire the beautiful scissors I'm wielding! Yes- well, it's the little things in life, isn't it?

Penny Bhadresa prints

These are some of Penny Bhadresa's prints currently on the St Judes web-site- gorgeousness.

Lady Elliot Island and my new little blue camera

I purchased a little compact underwater camera (Panasonic DMC-FT1) before going on holidays, and luckily for us, the one sunny day we had was the day of our day-trip to Lady Elliot Island. Despite weeks of rain up there the visibility was still good, and we had a wonderful day.
I'm still getting the hang of it, but geez underwater photography is fun!

Wildest weather

I'm currently visiting my family in Queensland- supposedly on a beach holiday but we have had nothing but soaking rain and cloudy skies the whole time! Not to mention that the rest of Queensland is flooded, and Melbourne had wild hail storms yesterday with the centre of the city underwater!!!
Climate change or not?- draw your own conclusions....
