A family day out ...


with sensational weather. What a great day out at the kids Opa's place at Aldinga! Around 10 acres of room which is great for the kids to ride around on.Fortunately no injuries. The bikes are just ideal for an almost fifteen year old and for an old fart like me.Claire screamed a lot but she said she really loves going for a ride.

Claire & Friend


Claire had a friend over for a sleepover.

We had some fun where the girls dressed up for a "fashion" parade and to give me some play time with the D200.

I've no idea where she gets her make-up skills from, however at nine years of age I think she has done a great job.

Shot with natural light against a large window with a brilliant white sheer curtain.

D200, 17-55mm Nikkor, f4, 30th at ISO200 mounted on a Manfrotto tripod.

Plane tree leaves


Alex & Claire are at their Opa's for the week so today I came home to an empty house. As I sat having a refreshing beer during a very pleasant evening, I noticed this light.It's just so nice to have time to myself and not have to be rushing around making dinner etc. Soothing!

A very busy Bee


Sheeze these guys are busy, especially on such a windy day.

Star burst?


Staying in a very old style old shack (very small, no power etc) in the Coorong National Park, South Australia. This flower is from a bush planted by the owners of the shack in an effort to revegetate the area from local native bushes. I've no idea what the bush is but it has a spectacular display of small flowers as seen here.
