Camellia Gardens

One of my favourite places to go on a nice day is Camellia Garden’s. I love the meandering pathways that lead to such beautiful surprises and colour. I say alot on this blog that I am always amazed by nature’s colours- the flowers and plants in the Garden’s are no different. I hope you enjoy…

cgardens12 It has been so long since I have spent the time to sit and watch ducks at play. I had so much fun watching them swim, fight and dive for food. It was really very funny and entertaining.

This last photo made me laugh because behind the camera I was excited this duck was putting on a show until I realised it was getting aggressive and there was only a few metres and a camera between me and this angry bird! lol I love photography.

Sculpture By The Sea

I had a wonderful opportunity to go to see Sculpture By The Sea with a friend on the weekend and had such a great time. Each year I promise I will go and see it but never have, so it was great to finally make it this year. When we got there is started to rain, thunder and lightening but we waited a bit and it eased off and we were able to get some great shots.

I loved so many of the sculptures. There was a real focus on metal, both shiny and rusted. I loved loved the rusted metal, both the varied vibrant colours but also the texture. There was also alot of really quirky stuff also which was great. I specifically chose to use my zoom lens to get in and see such textures and colours over getting the whole sculpture. I hope those of you in Sydney can get to see it and take your camera out for the day. I took so many shots so I will put up the rest next week.
