We are heading into late autumn here but this is an image I took during summer last February. Just after sunrise I spotted this spider repairing her web in beautiful light 🙂 I hope everyone is well!

Avenue of Honour – in Autumn…
Hello again to everyone! A good harvest is safely in (our earliest ever) and now it seems autumn may be early – everything is out of step. I took this image yesterday, the Avenue of Honour in Macedon. I’ve taken an image of this road before (click for link), last time in spring on my converted Nikon D90 in near infrared. I may be a week too soon for the colours but still very beautiful 🙂
A fleeting moment!
Hello again to everyone! Firstly apologies to my fellow bloggers that I haven’t commented on any of your posts, but hey at least I’m looking at them, lol!! Time is very short (as is for everyone). This post is just to say hello, I’m still here! 😀 Harvest is going to be very early this year so this might be a fleeting moment, very much as this image was…We have had so little rain this summer, but one afternoon last month I saw this feather covered in rain drops on our back deck and thought – macro! Click on the image for a larger view.
I’m dreaming of a white Christmas….
Even after 13 years of Christmas in the southern hemisphere, I still miss the cold and dark of a British Christmas. Today we went to Musk, near Daylesford for what has become our annual tradition to buy our Christmas tree from the same Christmas tree farm. In total opposite to the UK, the day was sunny, with blue skies and I was in a t-shirt…just the thing for an image in near infrared 🙂
Delicate Strength….
A very big hello to everyone!!! It’s been a long time since I last posted, in fact, nearly 6 months! I hope everyone is well 🙂 A lot has happened since I was last here, as it would be for everyone. I look forward to catching up with all your posts 🙂 WordPress has had a lot of changes!! This image was taken yesterday early morning, it’s hot here and the cool of the morning was welcome. Glad to be back 🙂
A Crown of Gold…
I live near Mount Macedon where there are a lot of houses with beautiful gardens (most are more like parks, being acres in size) that were planted in the late 19th Century, landscaped with beautiful northern hemisphere trees and plants. They are often open to the public in spring and autumn. Last month I visited one and saw this huge and wonderful old Beech tree, its crown in full autumn glory 🙂
Fog in the forest….
It is now officially winter down here in Oz and this last week was cold, dark and foggy (maximums of 6 C which for us is cold!). I like the fog and the silhouettes it creates – these are evergreen Eucalyptus trees. This is my submission for MM 2-14 hosted by the ever hard working Leanne Cole on Wednesdays – do have a look for a wonderful variety of monochrome images.
Light catcher!
I took this image in the pine forest – it was very dark and as I ‘oohed and aahed’ at the fungi, I spotted this beautiful spider web catching the light in a shaft of sun. It reminded me of a dream catcher – hence a ‘light catcher’ 🙂
Forest floor: 3
I must say I do admire people who post daily – it’s a huge effort! Well, here is day 3…I liked these specimens for their elegance. I went back a second time after it had been raining and did enjoy lying on my stomach in very wet undergrowth, delighting in this ‘other world’ of such diverse and delicate beauty 🙂
