this is a good illustration of why there are large amounts of this country with no people


lovely silvery images

random spring flowers

bird of paradise.......looking a bit scruffy in the school grounds







a cottage garden just cleared, fertalized and ready to look wonderful soon



next door is a much more structured look

the new new camera

i got pinged off with Panasonic over my camera purchase a few months ago ..... a long silly story really ......... but i downgraded a model which means nothing except that i dont have the you beaut HD video. that is ok because it was/is a total bore to use and needs converting with software i havnt a clue how to understand

anyway to test out the downgraded model i had to take pics of dog tonight...of course.
the camera is marginally different and i need to sort a few things out to get better macro shots

the weather changed late this afternooon

double click for a clearer view of a rainbow.

weird shape...someone kneeling with hands out
