Behind the facade

Photo for the week – 68 – Facade

He builds the walls
decorates the room
His creation for her
a place to dance
a stage to perform
Will she like what she sees
Is this the man for her
Can she see deep into his being
and find a way into
his heart
or is this a facade
a temporary construct
of a blue fantasy
beguiling
bewitching.

This is an actual Satin Bowerbird’s bower on my place. When I found this one I was just amazed at the number of blue things he had found to decorate the bower. I am not sure what the love heart came from or where many of the objects were collected as I know they weren’t from my place, except a blue peg or two perhaps.

Bren’s Photo for the Week – 64 – Creative

Sometimes I get in the mood to try something else with my photos. I had a random pick of a photo and decided, nah that’s too hard, so went to an image I liked and did a few changes. I didn’t do a collage like Bren’s fabulous image, just a bit of editing.

What do you think of my Eastern Spinebill and the Grevillea flower?

Jude’s 2020 Photo Challenge #14: Being Creative With Lines

I have a number of photos with lines, thanks to Becky’s Square Photo Challenge, so I sneak a few in here at the end if they fit Judes brief.

Lines, horizontal, vertical, diagonal, diminished, implied so many lines.

Do these fit? What do you think?

It’s raining

Here we go with a multiple photo challenge post again
The main object of the photos I took today were for Sunshine’s Macro Monday #30
and then I thought this is a good one for Jez’s Water Water Everywhere #16 inspired by his photo of red water droplets
Looking at my notifications I saw that Bren’s Photo for the Week – 57 – Flowers also fitted in for this series of images taken during another wonderful rain shower this morning.
Water drops were everywhere. Some vertical ready to slide20200224_blog challenge_macro_ponytail palm_green_water drops
