jug and fresh soap
One of my greatest little luxuries is a really hot deep bath! And then from that bath my favorite view would have to be of freshly scrubbed, bleached pine tops, scented with French hand made lavender soap. So I'm lucky, here in my little French house to have such a...
Cosmos
This comes hot off the press (or camera) so to speak. Taken a couple of hours ago with my lensbaby while I was out walking. Winter is fast approaching here in New Zealand so I have to make the most of the lovely day we're having and finding these in flower was an...

Powder Blue Hydrangea
I am enjoying playing with the new Spring Flypapers, although we trialled them extensively prior to release it's always fun coming up with new combinations and finding out what works with a certain style of photo. Over in our Flypaper flickr group there's a thread...
