DOWN A COUNTRY LANE

SHEEP ON JACKY'S NEW BLOCK

This shot looks as great as it does when I was taking the photo. I love the texture of the sheep's coat.

The land was beautifully green and lush. Just like New Zealand.

FAMILY PETS

This is Phillipa's ragdoll cat. Love the eyes and coloring. Thought she was like my misty but her coloring more chocolate.

Phil's very adorable labradors. Hard to take photo's of because as soon as I brought the camera out they would move towards you for cuddles. Like the definition around the dog's nose.

This is them waiting very patiently for there tucker. They were very civilised.

Stollie is my favorite dog of Sharon's to photograph. All her dogs are wonderful posers.

This cute little fella belongs to Kirsty. Very soft and cuddly but has the most loudest bark when visitors come. A habit the family are working on and being very challenged when we stayed there. How could you resist him though.

What a touching photo of Alyssa and dog.

This photo makes puss stand out.

This little cutie is my niece Jacky's whippet. He is still a puppy and very excitable. Love his coloring.

INDUSTRIAL

Jacky and I had the opportunity to take some good industrial shots of the old railways. We couldn't see the main ones so will lucky to get these photos.

AUSTRALIAN BUSH

I have just returned from Australia after spending one week in Brisbane with my sister Sharon and two weeks in Perth with other sisters, Jacky and Phillipa and also meeting my granddaughter for the first time as well as my son Aaron and partner Katie. I was fortunate enough to be taken two hours South of Perth (hope I have that right sis) for a few days with my sister Jacky. This is the time of the year for wildflowers and was very impressed with the bush with a carpet of beautiful yellow flowers. Everything was so green and some parts reminded me of New Zealand.

I love these blackboys and I believe they take two hundred years to grow to a decent size. The black really stands out in the bush.

MAROOCHY BOTANICAL GARDENS - SUNSHINE COAST

Today the three of us headed up to the Maroochy Botanical Gardens. It was a lovely day, not too hot and a nice breeze. I was very impressed with how green everything looked. Reminded me of New Zealand.

This beautiful seat was designed after the gum leaf.

BRIBE ISLAND

These photos were taken today. The day was a little overcast. The first two photos were taken looking one way and the other the opposite way. Notice the difference in the color of the sand.
