waterlogged wonderland (the green series)




i had so much fun playing with some of my images from the flooded parklands the other day that i can't resist posting a few more - in shades of green this time. amazing what you can do deliberately changing exposures and mucking around a bit in iphoto and picnik.

really enjoying all the lush new growth and incredibly beautiful colours everywhere (as well as the overcast days...music to my eyes, if there is such a thing). thinking that it's probably enough water for a little while though - hard to believe that this land of overflowing dams is the same drought-ridden one which was driving us in the direction of recycled water not too long ago.

  1. yes, this year has been a year of much rain. quite the contrast to what we've all had.
    beautiful images.
    absolutely such thing as music to the eyes (you would really enjoy that synesthesia doco). I adore over cast days too, always been my fave.

  2. Hi Kirsten! This is my first comment to your blog. I love your photos! And I wanted to let you know that overcast days are "music to my eyes" too. xoxo, Maureen

  4. I had the same thought today-from droughts to overflowing dams. I am loving these trees, the greens are so soothing and beautiful. And the windswept grasses-I really admire your talents, you compose images so elegantly. xok
