  1. <p>Lol Laura - your 'explanation' made me smile, thanks :)</p>
  2. <p>Thanks Ross for the answer to the plant ID - but riddle me this - why is mostly the really interesting looking plants etc., that end up being noxious weeds or such? One of Mother nature's jokes lol</p> <p>Steve, thanks for the kind comment, which kind of plays into what I was asking Ross.</p>
  3. <p>Hi all, I found this vine growing in a nature reserve near my home in Brisbane Australia. I have been unable to come close to an identification. It seems to be a vine (or a climber) and the green in the centre is a seed pod. I forgot to grab one to see what it looks like on the inside, sorry. I have never seen anything like this before, and the hairy framework around the pod has me intrigued. Does anyone have an idea what this could be? Any pointers would be helpful, as I know probably not that many people on this forum are from Australia, but maybe there is something similar elsewhere in the world. Many thanks!</p><div></div>
  4. <p>An interesting discussion which I have always wanted to have! I keep all my original files ordered by year, month and day of the month. However, each day of the month gets renamed with the subject/s for that day's shooting. So it looks like: 15 - backyard flowers, ladybird. This folder is nested inside the month, and then that folder is nested in it's year. That way, I can find an image based on date (if I know it) or subject. I use Bridge to organise my files so I can easily find any image or subject just by searching. When it comes to edited shots, I keep folders with just the place or subject name. With images resized for PN, they have 'resized' at the end of their name. So an image for PN would just be Yellow ladybird resized.jpg for example. For Facebook (usually family photos) I have larger size images with FB at the end of the image name - Amy Charlotte FB.jpg - that way I can tell what size is for what place.</p>

  7. <p>Happy New Year! Gosh, 2015 flew past didn't it? Due to maintenance on the power poles along the street, I spent the better part of a day without any electricity. But there was plenty going on up the street for me to shoot, so all was not lost :)</p><div></div>
  8. <p>During my daily walk around my garden I spotted this spiderweb wrapped around some tall grass...</p><div></div>
  9. <p>Hosteen, you will really enjoy that lens - I have it and it is fast and sharp and a pure joy as a walk around lens. Thanks for your comment on shot 2 as well.</p>
  10. <p>An abandoned basket on the beach also caught my attention...</p><div></div>
  11. <p>Top view of the grate and leaves...</p><div></div>
  12. <p>I really like that first shot Sanford, kept me looking for a while :)</p> <p>I have been having trouble posting to PN on my laptop since I 'upgraded' to Windows 10 as an experiment before deciding whether to make the change on my PC. It seems Firefox might have been the issue, but an update might have fixed the issue. My shots this week are from a stroll on the beach at my old haunt of Shorncliffe. Up from the beach is a board walk, playground, taps and outdoor showers and various b-b-q areas.</p><div></div>
  13. <p>Thanks David, the second shot kinda mirrors how I felt about being without any electricity for most of the day :)</p>
