With my up coming trek in Papua New Guinea I finally bought a new camera so I can improve my photography. The old camera just didn't have the capabilities I want. Anyway, with the amount of money I've been spending in relation to this trip I've certainly given the world economy a real boost. So this weekend I managed to fit in some time to hone my skills with the new camera. The following photos, on the same theme, are from the new camera.

We've moved into the transition period between the wet and dry seasons which means high temperatures and high humidity, plus plenty of sunshine. This brings on a mass flowering of small plants taking advantage of soil moisture and the sun.

The first is very common now at my place, especially amongst grasses where there's minimal canopy.
