Summer sunsets

photo of the sun setting in the horizon with pink and purple shades visible in the distance, through the silhouettes of trees

Masterful mixer
brews colourful concoctions—
splashes in the sky.

Weeds

Close up photo of a pink knotweed on a bush.

Little pink knotweed,
Easter eggs in the bushes
hiding in plain sight.

Roses

Close up photo of dead rose buds in the bush.

My garden finches,
appreciate laziness—
feast on spent roses.

Rough

Photo of the hilly and rocky landscape of South Australia as seen from a Qantas aircraft, with the wing of the Abe visible on the photo.

Pockmarked and freckled,
rough around the edges: earth;
imperfect is life.

Shiny

Close up photo of a bunch of pot marigold flowers by the roadside.

Simple butterflies:
drawn to pretty, vibrant things;
all photographers.
