Sunsets and Wildflowers

While the wildflowers were not out in force as much as they have been in previous years, they never fail to amaze and inspire me. Whenever I see them I think they are beautiful and I just have to capture them!

So I've been trying to identify creative ways of doing just that, seeing as I have many stock standard mulla mulla and desert peas now.

I took a lot of sunset photos in September, to road test my new backpack. It's safe to say that I am now kitted out - the backpack is a little large so people might look at me weird but oh well.

With all the sunsets and not many places in Karratha, I had to get creative. On my walk up the hill to shoot the sunset one evening I came across a patch of mulla mulla by the road. These flowers are stunning when the light is behind them. It makes them glow.
