WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge — All-Time Favorites
Here is my contribution to the last ever WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge. I never thought I would come to love this Challenge so much. Thank you to WordPress for hosting this challenge which has given me such creative inspiration since last October.
It goes without saying that I adore my family the most. But beyond my family, there are a couple of true loves that I would like to share with you to end this journey. Read more
WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge — Twisted
Since the Weekly Photo Challenge is to be discontinued, I thought I should put in an entry this week. I had no idea when starting my blog that I would enjoy the WordPress Weekly Challenge so much. I will miss it, but I will just have to be brave and jump into some of the other photo challenges every now and then. In the meantime, here is my response to the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge theme of ‘Twisted’. For this challenge, I found inspiration in craft. Read more
WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge — Liquid
The theme for the WordPress Weekly Challenge theme is “liquid”. In responding to the Challenge, my main criterion was that the focus of the photo should be on the water/liquid rather than on the other elements within the photo.

WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge — Prolific
I had decided not to enter this week’s photo challenge, but changed my mind today as I had the very good fortune to visit the amazingly beautiful Australian National Botanic Gardens. To my delight, there were many plants in full bloom. My little phone camera struggled with some of the smaller, more delicate flowers, but it absolutely loved the banksias. There is such a huge variety of banksias, and many were flowering prolifically. I hope you like them as much as my camera did. Read more

We can also share a photo of something that has brought a moment of joy into our lives recently, or that focuses on the outcome of that joy. Here are some photos of festive bollards that make me smile. Read more

WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge – I’d Rather Be… On the Road Again
A few years ago, I suffered from a serious depressive episode – you know, the kind where you just want to run away. I’m not ashamed that even though I was nearly 50 years old at the time, I still needed my mum. So I packed my bags and headed out on the road for the 1,500 kilometre trip north to mum’s. Read more
