rain drops on roses

Yes more roses, but aren't they just gorgeous?






I think they are :)

icebergs ahead




The first bloom on our iceberg rose bush.
The plant is absolutely covered with buds, I can't wait to see it in full bloom.
I used the macro mode on my camera when taking this shot.
A little bit of editing (cropping and slightly sharpened) and I'm really happy with the final result.
I think it would look fantastic as a canvas.
What do you think?

my beach




This is my beach. It's where I go to relax and the kids go to have fun.






My mum and the kids.




Check out the size of these birds! They are Pacific Gulls, absolutely huge compared to the ordinary seagulls on the right.


I love the patterns in the water in this shot.



Ripples and shadows, I love the textures in this shot.


My baby!


Heading home.

welcome

to my new photo blog!

I love taking photos, lots of photos. I'm also trying to refine my photography skills. So I thought rather than bombarding my regular blog with dozens of photos, I thought I'd start a photo blog. So prepare to be bombarded by my amateur photos lol
