Nick's Orange Grove Markets Orchids

As a photographer the 2095 chick tends to select "things people wouldn't ordinarily see" even more so at markets or when out and about.  

Traditionally she is not one who gets the "ooh" and "ahhh" satisfaction from obsessively capturing leaves and trees.

However there is one particular plant that is almost impossible to resist. It is deceptively simple in its flawlessness & this is somehow magnified once viewed from behind the lens.  

Each Orange Grove market visit, the 2095 chick MUST shoot this amazing flower at all costs, and somehow is able to identify the latest addition to an already amazing collection with no prompting from Nick (dubbed The King of Orchids)

So for my friend Nick my top 10 shots of your beautiful orchids












however given it is me, be assured there will be more of Nick's gorgeous flowers and plants in blogs to come

Orange Grove Organic Markets

Each Saturday Orange Grove Public School comes alive with the sound of organic food, hidden delights, entertainment and all round village-vibe which is something that Sydney so sorely requires.

Too often we are bound to the fibre-optics and tend to lose a sense of reality, so to be able to get to a place where people talk, share, laugh, shop and simply enjoy life and all it has to offer, is a blessing.

What impresses me about this particular market is that no matter what the weather the ever-faithful are there not only to satisfy their inner-organic-fix but probably most importantly to support local producers and as Henry (who is but one of the BHP'ers ....the quiet achievers) says "they expect us, they appreciate us, why wouldn't we be here".  A sentiment that should be echoed and deemed a mantra.

Whether it's a food trail you're after or simply taking time out to watch the kids have some fun riding the ponies, jumping on the castle or twirling away to the music, you would be hard pressed to NOT find at least one thing you fall in love with here.
