My Rainbow

I saw this photoshop technique in Digital SLR Photography magazine and I thought it was cute, but that it wasn't useful to me. Then I had an idea to take a photo of a landscape with a canola paddock in it, and I could try the technique and make the canola the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Not too shabby for a first try! Could have tweaked it a bit more, but I was impatient (typical me!).

My Dogs

I love Ginnie's face in this shot. Chasing Chopper is hardcore!

Instead of chasing the ball, Ginnie chases Chopper, and she rounds him up like a sheep to bring him back to us. This is her taking off!

Stuffed after a big play. Can't walk the rest of the way, need a lay down!

Bang! Mid air collision.

Here it comes...

Aww :)

I'm gonna get it!

Time for a swim in the dam.

Will you throw this for me? Please?

Anything to retrieve a rock.

I Told You Spring Was Coming!

Sometimes you see beautiful sights on the way home from work :)

Freesias are my favourite wildflowers

There is a massive carpet of freesias in this patch of scrub. The gorgeous smell is everywhere.

Loves me, loves me not...

Did I mention the carpet of freesias?

I like the dead & alive aspect of this picture - the trees are a bit dead looking, but the ground cover is vibrant and alive.

Blue clouds :)

A Hint of Spring

The flowers and trees are telling me that spring is on its way, but I'm yet to be convinced by the temperature! Here's some random photos :)

"Can we help you?" - this isn't a particularly brilliant photo, but I just love cows :)

How awesome are these clouds?

Lets go home

Nearly there

I know you're not supposed to look directly into the sun, but...

Huh?

I know this is out of focus, but I love the intensity in Chopper's face :) Fetching a ball is serious business.

What A Wild & Wooly Day!

If you'd asked me what I was going to do today, I would've have said painting. Not going on a crazy adventure just to take photos of the flooding from the rain and having to get through a few roadblocks!

Hmm... bugger... Shanks pony from here.

You can't really tell, but this massive puddle goes nearly all the way to the house (can't see it very well cos the grass is too high).

You can't tell, but my feet were actually soaking when I took this. I couldn't find the end of the puddle. Think its in Shaneo's paddock somewhere.

From the driveway (last night)

Even goes into Twelftrees paddock.

We no longer have a road. Now we have a watercourse.

And speaking of watercourses, this is the bridge at the golf course (sorry, best picture I could take - it was raining and I wasn't getting out of my car!)
