simply superb...


Not long ago I was fortunate to be one of the winners in a give-away on the inaluxe blog. If you haven't seen their work before, I urge you to go have a look, it's all gorgeous.

My prize was this beautiful Superb Blue Wren print, which arrived the other day, beautifully packaged & even more gorgeous than it looked online. I should have taken a photo before I tore the sticker, but I couldn't wait to see it :)



If you want your own blue wren (& why wouldn't you), all their prints are available in their online store. Or one of their other prints might catch your eye, like this one, or perhaps this.


Thanks so much Kristina & Jason, I love my little wren :)

a potentially prickly encounter...


On our way down Mt Remarkable, we had a rather special encounter.

We hadn't seen that much wildlife other than a few birds, until we spotted this prickly fellow, just off the path. It was very shy at first, but once we stood quietly for a while, poked it's head out. The sound of the camera seemed to spook it, so I watched & waited a while between shots. I probably could have sat & watched it all day, but the hot drinks we had left in the car were calling us, so eventually we moved on.


a little further on, we also spotted another local...
