Nostalgia
Squares and Circles
Oh how could I resist this photo challenge from Nancy: Squares and Circles
“This week’s challenge is all about mixing squares and circles. Photography is a rectangular activity. Even though our lenses are round, the output is not. You can create a round image using post-processing methods. You can also create a round image using scissors on a print (very old-fashioned). I used the cropping tool in Photoshop to put my round pie into a square.”
Perhaps I was attracted by the thought of Nancy’s pie
“For anyone who is interested: my pie is a take on a blueberry sour cream pie recipe that I found online.”
Enough of the prologue, thanks for the challenge Nancy, let’s see what I can come up with and find some circles in squares. Stop laughing Becky. Mmmm pie 🙂

The Rule of Thirds
Nancy’s Photo a Week Challenge:The Rule of Thirds
When I photograph birds it is quite easy to get the photo within the rule of thirds. I always have the grid switched on so I can see where to place things. I use the rule of thirds to capture what the bird is looking at or doing perhaps.
Although what is it that gets the attention, the flowers or the bird?
A Figbird among Jacaranda flowers
A Noisy Friarbird and Bottlebrush flowers
The Satin Bowerbird enjoying the nectar from Honey Gem Grevillea flowers

Fire
The word prompt from Nancys Photo a Week Photo Challenge: Fire
So much fire.
There’s the to keep warm outside on a winters night
Of course there is the Fire Sticks plant in the afternoon sun
or the flowers of a Fire Wheel Tree
The glowing embers as the fire dies down
Always need a fireplace
and firewood to go into the fireplace to cook or keep warm
There is the fire of hell that religion depicts on church windows
Some days it seems like our Sun is on fire
The magic of fireworks
The skill of the fire twirler
The life savers in the Sky Crane to put out the bushfires
I couldn’t forget to put in a Red-browed Firetail finch
Or candles to remember and pray in the church
