With sky as a backdrop…

I will be displaying part 2 of the flower series in the next post. Just to break it up a little , the new 125 cards that have been added to the gallery will show images of a hand, legs and amusement park rides with the sky in the background.

When looking at an image with clear blue skies as it’s backdrop, it really enhances the whole picture and gives it a different feel. It’s also intriguing when clouds are formed in the sky and make an interesting pattern. A cloud is basically a mass of small droplets or crystals but combined with a blue sky, it’s certainly a wonderful image to behold…

Below are some 125 x 125 pixel card samples that have been included in the gallery:

Card 1: Photo of thumb and index finger holding a white floating seed with blue sky in the background.

Card 2: Photograph of people’s legs hanging upside down from an amusement ride with blue sky in the background.

Part 1 series: 125 x 125 Flower images

I absolutely love looking at flowers in the garden or in pictures…and ofcourse, I love having fresh flowers in the house. The new 125 x 125 pixel images will be dedicated to showcase the best from the many floral photographs we have taken so far from a variety of places.

There were so many flower images to choose from, as a result I will publish these images in a two part series. This first part, will display floral and bulb images that were taken at the Mount Tomah Botanic Gardens. This vast and beautiful botanic garden is located in an altitude of over 1000 metres in the upper Blue Mountains in New South Wales (Sydney) Australia. It was opened to the public in 1987 to house over 5000 species of plants from the cooler parts of the world.

The day we visited the Mount Tomah Botanic Gardens it was filled with sunshine. Although the garden is already splendid, the sunshine that basked over it really brought out it’s beauty every angle that you looked at. There is also a nice restaurant that is located within the garden. With the amount of walking that you end up doing, it’s great that you can have a little rest, grab a coffee or a wonderful meal while at the same time being able to admire the expansive and stunning views of the gardens from the restaurant window. It’s certainly worth a visit if you are ever in Sydney.

I’ll let you judge the beauty of the floral images by having a look at some of the new 125 x 125 images below.

Now be warned, as much as I love flowers, I’m certainly not an expert on their names - so advance apologies!
