A wanna be photographer

Well I lashed out and joined a beginners photography group to learn some techniques. The first challenge was flowers. I've never done flowers before and I discovered macro. I know these pics are far, far away from photography standard - but it was interesting learning what works at what angles and what looks good.

There's a fine line between pleasure and pain

So take your pick, what is it - pleasure or pain?





Such is the joy of first time swimming lessons eh?

Oh precious source of light, how I love thee...let me count the ways

ONE: I love how after 10 years, you are special enough to be the first item deemed worthy enough to cover a naked bulb in my house.



TWO: I love how the sunlight glimmers off your plasticness, giving the impression to those with less than 20/20 sight that you are in fact crystal.



THREE: I love how you glow an almost McDonalds cheese colour when your bulb is heating up.



AND FOUR: I love how Miss Almost Two jumps up and down and shrieks "pretties" at her new light pendant. For that your McDonald's cheese plasticness is worth every cent.
