Baskets, shells and Gumnuts

An interesting mix of shapes and textures in shells and gumnuts found in South Perth, Western Australia during a visit there in November 2017. The basket belongs to my friend Vicki.

Maritime Magic

A magical day in Freemantle with all things maritme. The W A Maritime Museum was an inspiration.  And the street painted with yellow stripes as part of the Festival of Arts was fun,too.

Inspired by Wabi Sabi

My artist friend, Michelle inspired me with her wabi sabi board on pinterest . I won't attempt to define Wabi Sabi here, but sufficient to say it usually relates to the passage of time or the patina of age.

Autumn berries

These colourful berries caught my eye when I was out on a morning walk

Succulents and Symmetry

I always like taking photos of succulents - interesting shape, forms, colour, symmetry and glossy surfaces. Just gorgeous!

Monet's lawn

Monets's lawn.  Well, actually it was my front lawn this morning.

 But it reminded me of an impressionist painting. 

I think Monet would have liked it.
