Things have started becoming more certain around the trip to The Great Ocean Road this year. Stephen and I have been in constant contact and it looks like the dates are starting to settle in. The tentative weekend is going to be 12/08 (Friday) to 14/08 (Sunday). We are still working out the number of […]

It’s so sad when I don’t have a (photo) trip planned. I know that in times of COVID, planning isn’t really a thing and travelling is very restricted. However, we are starting to think of the next trip. I love the fact that Stephen and Dean (my husband) want to go around Victoria taking photos […]

I probably should write more than what I will, but this is an introductory post. So, on our Woodend photography expedition; where we will take photos, hike and eat vanilla slice; we found a lovely BnB in Gisborne that accepts dogs. It’s not as close to Woodend as we wanted, but the place is lovely. […]

Ok, I have taken good landscape photos… I think and hope. This post is actually to talk about the prep-work behind landscape/night sky photography. I am planning a road trip on the long Labor Day weekend. So far, the best place I’ve come up with is Woodend/Mount Macedon. Why have I been looking at that? […]

Long weekends generally mean: ROADTRIP! I’m excited. We are going to the Colac/Otways area in Victoria. There are many activities we can do there with Hughey, the “custest”and “bestest” puppy ever (said the “completely unbiased” fur-daddy). Even though sunset will be at 8:45pm (in Colac), I will try to stay awake to take a night […]

A few weeks ago I mentioned in my Goal for 2021 post that in 2020 I missed all the goals due to the pandemic. As a result, I basically adopted most of the goals for 2021 that were for 2020. I have finally finalized the changes in the Goals page and it now reflects what […]

Last year I created a whole page for my photographic goals for 2020. With COVID-19, I really wasn’t able to execute most of them (probably all). The restrictions and being in lockdown for most of 9 months was a bit hard to take and to plan anything with all the uncertainty around when we would […]

Not really “off season”, I guess off season for us. Like I’ve mentioned in this blog a few times, we spend Easter long weekend at St. Leonards as a family (Dean, myself, Dean’s dad and step mother, sometimes Dean’s brother or grandmother). Because of COVID-19, travelling was out of the question for Easter this year, […]

So, this little love muffin came into my life 3 days ago! He is the cutest thing ever and I want to be Elmira and just hug him and squeeze him and love him. Unlike the chickens, he actually enjoys the love cuddles. I decided that I had to take TONS of photos of him. […]

So, I am planning a sunset picnic after yesterday’s post about the Ring of Steel. I loved the idea of taking photos of the city from the “running circle” in Royal Park. I will go to the circle Friday week (30/10) after work, probably get there around 6:30-7:00pm and meet friends there for the picnic. […]

Thankfully restrictions are reducing and from 5km we are now allowed to go up to 25km. There still is a separation between Melbourne and Regional Victoria, but hopefully that will be dropped before the end of the year – the infamous Ring of Steel. I understand why the restrictions were put in place and agree […]

Of course planning needs to happen. If it didn’t, it wouldn’t be me. So last night, I decided to evolve the project a little more. So, each week, I will focus on a photographic aspect. As an example, this week (week 3) I will only take photos with my 50 mm f/1.8. Considering that the […]
