Source: Week 4: Long distance For those of you playing along at home here is Week 4 of our 52 week photography project, with the theme of Long distance.

Source: Week 3: Transport For those of you playing along at home here is Week 3 of our 52 week photography project. My photo for Transport was a classic Steam Train arriving in a dramatic puff of steam at Melbourne’s Southern Cross Station on a cold morning. Did I say it was an early start too? No? well it was very,…

Wordless Wednesday – has now been renamed ‘Worth a Word’ Wednesday simply because I can’t stick to the rules of NO WORDS 🙂 Theses magnificent trees deserve to have some words written about them. Can you see the scribbles on them? They are found in the bush near where where my husband grew up in Nowra on the South Coast of…
Run Melbourne 2017 Last week I wrote a post about my upcoming Run Melbourne 2017 event – I CAN do this – and I am pleased to say not only did I do it, I did really well! This is a quote from my post last week: I’m not fast, I’m not stylish, I tend to run a bit heavy, I’m sometimes…

Who’s who in the story… I have joined with 6 photographers, of varying experience, to take a photo every week for a year, one theme at a time. It’s turned into a bit of a family affair actually…
Wordless Wednesday – has now been renamed ‘Worth a Word’ Wednesday simply because I can’t stick to the rules of NO WORDS 🙂 Another beach scene on a winter’s day in the southern hemisphere! A glorious day revisiting haunts of our past and enjoying time with family. This beach is called Currarong and is on the South Coast of NSW. It…
Running has been a part of my life for quite a while now. I’ve written quite a few posts about it over the years and here comes another one!! I’m not fast, I’m not stylish, I tend to run a bit heavy, I’m sometimes happy when it’s over and I’m no longer what you’d call a youngster. I still…
Wordless Wednesday – now renamed Worth a Word Wednesday These sheep have taken on the fashion advice of ‘blending in’….they match their surroundings very well. One of the joys of living where I live is seeing the lambs start off as snowy white and gamboling all over the paddock, then growing older and losing their newborn look as they start…
Wordless Wednesday – now renamed Worth a Word Wednesday Keep your feet on the ground and your head in the clouds! While out running this week I’ve managed to capture these two shots of cloud formations rolling in over Tumbarumba. I must admit to being impressed with the sky and the massive clouds. We had some rain but I think there…

Wordless Wednesday – winter and the tracks of my life No more ‘jealousy/wish you were here’ shots of beaches from me for the moment, I’m back home into full-on winter mode – it’s wet, grey, cold and just a tad miserable outside. These tracks are throughout the forest at the rear of our property and over the years my husband has…
Hello readers I’m back home again now and winter is really getting into its stride down here. It was minus 6 the other day but at the moment it’s overcast and drizzling with rain. As you may know, I’ve been sharing my husband’s answers recently in my Share Your World posts, and it’s been fun to hear your responses. Last week I…

We had a lovely week together just hanging out, visiting…
Wordless Wednesday – winter not winter While staying with my mother, I attended her weekly exercise class in the park. I was lying on my back enjoying the balmy afternoon and up above was this gorgeous tree. It was a beautiful sight and so I snapped a pic. I’m good at multitasking 😊 Wordless Wednesday….with some words (again). Location: Murwillumbah NSW…
Hello from a warmer climate! I’m visiting my mother up north at the moment, where they think it’s a cold winter’s day if the temperature drops to 15 degrees celcius, it’s considered a hot winter’s day at home if we break into double figures at this time of year! I even had to go and buy some shorts yesterday as…

This is fantastic news for those of us who have been patiently working behind the scenes to enable a rail trail…
