There’s something quietly radical in that old verse that says we’re worth “more than many sparrows.” For a long time, I thought of it as just a pretty idea meant for someone else. In my own mind, the math almost never worked out. I spent years wrestling with self-worth—feeling less like someone special and more … Read more
Finding Meaning in My Three Everyday Essentials Life can sometimes feel overwhelming with all its noise and clutter. So, I recently took a moment to reflect on what really matters to me. When I stripped away the excess, I was left with three everyday essentials that shape who I am: identity, connection, and freedom. These … Read more
As a printing business owner, I often reflect on the experiences that have truly shaped who I am. While formal education and training have certainly played their part, nothing compares to the lessons I’ve learned from running my own printing business, Splash Colour Imaging. The ups and downs, the unexpected challenges, and the small wins … Read more
The Low-Rider Who Lifted My Spirits was a Dashshund who changed my life. They say money can’t buy happiness, but it can buy a pair of floppy ears and a tail that never stops wagging. Since Milo, my miniature Dachshund, entered my life, I’ve learned that life with a Doxie is never boring. He’s transformed … Read more
I took Milo downstairs before bed to do his business on the lawn, and my neighbour was tinkering in his garage. I managed to snap this image, which I quite like. Some ordered chaos.
As I was walking today I came across these Ibis birds by the lake. It’s a busy photo but I do like the red tree on the right framing the image.
A friend of mine asked if I could take some photos of him for his gardening website. This is one of the photos from the shoot. I used my Nikon Z9 Camera with the Nikon Plena lens. I love the bokeh from this lens.
The Photo of the Day challenge is quite difficult when going about my usual day-to-day. This photo is in a hideous spot when I go for my lunchtime walk; the path goes under a motorway. The canal is littered with debris and rubbish from suburbia and has a distinctly unpleasant odour.
The Georges River in its morning best. There’s a specific stillness that only exists at the water’s edge before the rest of the world wakes up. Pure liquid gold.
What a magical morning! I caught the most stunning sunrise today—even if the flying bird decided to be a bit of a blurry “special guest star” while I was racing to get my zoom lens ready! The local Kookaburras were out in full force, perched on the aerial just like clockwork. They’re such characters, sitting … Read more
Went downstairs with Milo this morning and got this glorious sky. I like how the lower clouds are quite ominous compared to the higher clouds lit up by the sunrise. A good contrast.
I took Milo, my mad dachshund, down to do his business before going to bed. I turned around to snap this photo as I headed back inside. Love the blue light from the TV in my neighbour’s room above.
