Anything goes' and this was mine.. lots of lightroom work on this- i liked this dancing tree, she looks great in see through clothes!

this is my colour shot.. i called it a row of pink
and i have to say i dont particularly like it.. but as always left it a tad too late to catch another

subject was the 2 of us.. i saw these boys at bradgate park having fun.. and liked the twosome of the lads as well as the net and bucket. but it didnt cop many votes

St Augustines Church







restricted access for this shot due to floor caving in, in parts and still on my month sole use of 35mm lens - must say really like it!!!!
Thought about it, but then nahhhhh just couldnt do it


Brent spotted this last week and we decided to take a look-see today. Poor church left to rack and ruin after the last major arson attack - just a shell



You could still see fragments of stained glass , twisted and melted


alot of weeds to push through

Sunny Day In Looggaburrugah

I had the most fantastic birthday - Gina and Mils came down from Essex and on the saturday went to loogabarruuuga for a nice bit of tea and toast at the park cafe.
Mils says quite a few words and is really very clever, she pulls hersklf up now and wants your hands to walk her. She says dog, cat and loves to say pop where she emphasises the last P, she also tries clock but without the L


Love this picture of her

Jak loved the bandstand and did not want to leave





Happy shot taken just before we had tears as we strapped
him in the chariot
