Capture Your 365 - Days 7 to 11

Day 7 - Natural Treasure    Loved | Not Artificial | Outside






The first thought that came to mind when I saw the topic 'Natural Treasure' was flowers. So I tried to find a flower that stood out from the rest. This flower is from the tree Buckinghamia celsissima, which is more commonly known as the Ivory Curl Tree. The Ivory Curl Tree has long, creamy, curved flowers that are quite popular with the lorikeets and bees. It is native to Queensland, Australia.

Day 8 - Blue    A Crayon | The Colour | The Sky






My blue nail polish. This one was taken late in the afternoon in a little corner of my bathroom so I could get some light. Being school holidays, my assistants (I mean kids) were playing with friends, so I had to set up this one myself - nail polish in one hand and very heavy camera with macro lens in the other.

Day 9 - Where I Stand    Look Down | Include Your Feet | In Place






After my Hubby mowed the lawn, I kicked of my shoes to walk on the freshly cut grass.
