I came upon this pond after a short hike this morning. Will keep it in mind next time there's a bit more color in the sky. D FA 28-105mm.

Very nice. The pond is perfectly flat, making for a great mirror.

There is some good definition in the clouds, I bet you could stretch the image a bit in Photoshop and find a bit more.

I appreciate your comment. I'm still struggling with PP. I'm an old fart trying to get comfortable in the digital age. But will definitely take your suggestion to heart and see what I can do. I appreciate the feed back.

On a short walk this morning I found a tree with a few of these growing on its trunk. I think the colors work well together. K-1 II and D FA 100mm WR.

They do. I like the contrast of textures too.

From a walk in Bunyip State Park, Victoria, in November (which is the height of our spring). This was the buttongrass walk, a remarkably diverse 3.2km (2 mile) loop through unusual plant communities with a number of uncommon to rare species. Poor soils often seem to produce the greatest diversity, because no one species dominates.

Swamp bush-pea, something of a rarity. K-S2 + DA 55-300 PLM.


All the remaining shots are K-S2 + DA 20-40 Ltd.

Stringybark eucalypts and a view towards the Black Snake Range.


Messmates and coral fern.


This looks like a little conifer but it's actually Bushy Club-moss (Lycopodium deuterodensum), part of an ancient family of spore-bearing plants from Gondwana times.


There are many species of pea flowers. Not sure which one this is.


Wiry Bauera (Bauera rubioides)


Woolly tea-tree (Leptospermum lanigerum)

Creative use if a fisheye. It also debunks the idea that humans are at the center of creation as clearly, everything centers on and rotates around that leaf.

If you live in Toronto you think Toronto is the centre of the known universe. It's a common criticism.

Spring or groundwater fed pool. Despite continuous below freezing temps for several days, this perfectly still pool has no ice and a thriving growth of water plants.
