5th December 2008...It's Friday.

Weather forecast snapped at 2.23pm

One of our neighbours has major runoff issues...

This really felt like it looks, crisp yet warm.


I am learning as much about the equipment as the weather.


The light poles are becoming surrogate urban trees...


This was inspired by a recent image of Susan Buret's [Shadow on the timber fence]

Nature's resilience... defying gravity.

Our local storm drain...

The tall grass has been growing rapidly at the park boundary.


Local park...or Royal Pine Links?


Overcast morning. Today I thought I would take the camera for a morning walk....I did not return for 2hrs and found 2 new settings on the camera and took 144 images!
6.29.am

The plants are lapping up every drop after such a long dry spell.

3rd December 2008...on the move

7.06am [photo of refections in the side widow of the car]

This New Zealand flax seems unphased by the hot & humid Brisbane climate.



Ah..the 7am morning commute. How glad I am not to be part of this on a daily basis.
Another warm summers day in the making.

2nd December 2008...good evening!


Going from 'all smiles' to a frouning long face...they say women are moody.

2nd Dec 2008

In for another steamy day.


The sky blue ripples the rock's edge.


This Balinese Buddha carries the remainder of our dry spell and the recent storms and rain on its shoulders...


Another blue sky day!
[These photos where taken between 6.30 - 8.00am]

The Clayton's version....

Clayton's... the image you take when the planets are no longer aligned!

[I raced outside when I heard about venus smiling at the moon on Susan Buret's weather blog...
alas I was too late...The light at our roundabout was a close second.]


9.18pm 1st Dec [fun | mild]

evening of the first summer's day...





I have the bug.... taking these photos is like meditating, once you start you can't seem to get enough.
