Lighting effects

I decided to return to the country road to take pictures of the same windrow as yesterday to see how the lighting would have a different effect on the pictures.

Brrrr Cold

Today was a beautiful sun shiny day, however -25degrees. This is a windrow on the side of a country road. I loved how the snow and the blue sky contrast.
 
 No wind as you can see by the rising smoke.

Did you ever notice?

Did you ever notice how the lid to a disposable coffee cup - looks like a face? And this is what boredom looks like......

Home

Well, I arrived home yesterday, however with the time change etc I didn't take any new pictures. I was too busy catching up on sleep. I will be posting pictures that I took over the past couple of weeks of my Australian Adventure. The picture that I am posting today, is the wonderful warm Welcome home that I received from my super sis Bernice and my brother Stu...

Last day of our Australian Adventure

Today, we headed out to Kings Beach to take advantage of one last day of swimming. It came at a cost - sunburn, but we had a blast and it was worth every red mark





I find these drifts a little more acceptable.

 
The Glasshouse mountains named by Captain Cook as they reminded him of the glass furnaces of Yorkshire England. They were once lava plugs within volcanic cones.


 
 My son and I took Jan out for supper. Brisbane had converted an old Gas Storage area into a trendy cafĂ©, area.

R & R after travelling the day

Today, we arrived late at our hotel, so only had time for a walk about, swim, supper then bed..


            Beautiful seemingly wild flowers that I came upon while walking up a roadway.

 
The beading water droplets and sunset in the background provided a lovely pastel picture of the pool.
