It was a hot one today
We’ve had a nice relaxing weekend….Sunday night here and tomorrow we have taken Monday off and Tuesday is a public holiday…so Wednesday before we have to head back to work…yippeeeeee
We’ve been out and about in the last couple of days…took our camera’s of course.
I’m still getting use to this new one and am having some real mixed results….its annoying me….and now I see where my daughter gets her trait of wanting to be perfect at something new.
So here’s a few……novice in practice
djd has shown the best piccies of the day on the dragon fly but I like my first one becauese of the way the sun makes the wings look golden…bit blurry in the body though
And Lightbuthearty….djd doesn’t have macro… nor did he use a tripod..I’m afraid he just has pure talent 🙂
djd doesn’t like my "arty" pics 🙂
And today was a beautiful hot hot day…we went to open houses up the coast looking for a rental to buy and instead found kids having fun in the sun & sea
Ilike allyour photos sweets …. they look great :O)

well I like your arty pics…especially the tree roots and those kids in the sea. DJD may not have macro but he does have amazing lens and camera quality. But then, so do you my friend…remind him its not a competition..its about affordable cameras as much as having a good eye for a subject, as you do. hugs P

That dragonfly must have been freaked out to have so many “things” pointed at him lol. Great pics, I love experimenting as often what you think wouldn’t be any good often is. Summer is definitely here now…just when the kids go back to school I might add! I think most of NZ has taken Monday off for a long weekend lol. *hugs*

The second photo of the root looks very much like a lizard crawling through the moss. These are mixed results? Pretty darn good I would say…you are far too hard on yourself. The grass at the top looks so silky…like the mane of a unicorn. Ok if I get all metaphorical about your arty photos? Pure talent….ok then, I guess my ego can take it!

It’s hard to believe that dragonfly let him get so close without flying away!

heyyy lol you both take great shots and djd can leave the ‘art’ to you ……. and we’ll still get to see you both approach perfection

Wow! If these photos are the work of you as a novice, what will your photos be like with more practice?! I wonder if that dragonfly realises how photogenic it is? I particularly love your photo from directly behind it, making its markings a series of upside down Vs.

hot? Hot? It was 25 degrees below zero farenheit today, I have no idea how cold that is C. I don’t think your thermometor goes that low. LOL 🙂

I love this pictures – they are great. I hope this test gives results as well, it’s been going on for nearly 2 months now, the weight loss is not good and he hates to see me eating a nice dinner while he has soup. He tried a dinner tonight and now is in pain. Take care – Hugs x

Fantastic fotos. Practice makes perfect they say – but where can you go from there? Hope this weekend also allows you more time to practice.

RYN: thank you so much for thinking of me. That gypsy fair is possibly one that my friend Judy travels with, she does palm readings and art…they travel all over Aotearoa. I will email addy. hugs P
