30 Day Photo Hunt Challenge – Day 12 – Sun set

I have the feeling the clouds are deferent here, I don’t quite know why. Is it just that it feels like there is more sky here. But we just have amazing cloud formations. I kind of missed the sunset last night, I don’t know if I was too early or too late. But I was watching the sky and it never really went red like I was expecting it too. So this is my sun set from last night.

 

 

Week 28 of Project 365

It was queens weekend here this weekend, so it was a long weekend (how often can one use the word weekend in a sentence). The kids had fun there. We even went swimming, the official start of winter was on the first. The forecast was HORRIBEL, we were supposed to have wind rain and storms. BUT it was just the opposed, it was warm the sun was shining.

DAY 190

The room I sleep in here is full of glow in the dark stars. So I get to look at the stars even if it is poring down with rain.

 

DAY 191

At the batch we went to over queens weekend they have these pottery ocean deco, a local potter up north here makes them.

 

DAY 192

Sun set from the batch.

 

DAY 193

Waves coming in over the textured sand.

 

DAY 194

Buddy my mums dog.

DAY 195

Stacked apples. Our neighbour has all these granny smith apples. For both scavenger hunt Sunday and the 30 day photography challenge the theme is apple. I didn’t know what I wanted to take or how to take it. Then this came to mind.

DAY 196

We went for a walk yesterday just as the sun was starting to set. For a change a deferent view of the sun setting, since I wasn’t on the front lawn.

May Photo Hunt Challenge

This is the may challenge. I found some of the themes very hard. LOL even more finding a spring activity when Autumn has just hit us with full blast. It is getting cold down here now. No spring in sight. At least I am in the winterless north (who ever thought of that one, it gets cold).

Wind

Clouds getting blown in the wind.

I learnt this back when I was at the hang gliding school (didn’t end up finishing the course because the weather was never really on my side). But when the clouds are pulled long like the yellow ones, it is the wind blowing over them and pulling them out into that shape. You can’t see the wind but you know it is there just the way the clouds are shaped. Now I hope I did remember that correctly.

 

Sprout

Bamboo sprout.

 

Fresh

A freshly lain egg.

 

Vibrant

A monarch butterfly on the plants out side the play centre.

 

Unique

A tiny egg, found in the neighbours chicken house, don’t often come across them this small, I am not sure if it is from a bantam or one of the normal chickens.

 

Wet

A crystals in the morning due.

 

Lines

Sun shining through the bamboo.

A Spring Activity

My mother gardening, Ms Mar and my mother planted garlic and some other stuff for the garden, though this was a Autumn planting and not in spring as in NZ we have Autumn now.

Reading Materials

My book, that I was reading.

One Point Perspective

Bamboo growing up.

 

Something Juicy

I made a self saucing orange pudding and I was juicing the oranges. Pretty juicy if you ask me..

Week 26 of Project 365

FINALY I have caught up with my Photos, now already at week 26 I am half way though this and only missed at few days. It is amazing that I have really stuck with something this long, and I am still enjoying. Some days I do have a bit of a harder time taking a photo. But not most days.

This week we had flooding and Ms Mar got to stay home from school. We couldn’t really get out of the valley we are living in. But it was fun. In the afternoon we went for a walk to feed the neighbours rabbits, the river was HIGH, but we did notice it had already started to go down. The next day the school bus couldn’t get to us, since there had been a huge slip. Only cars could get past, they also chopped down some trees so it took them all day to clean it up. The school bus did bring her home though.

Wordless Wednesday #13

The reason I wished for a camera when I was 10 was to actually take photos of the sky. This is probably one of the least things I have taken fotos of. Well except for the last 2 weeks. I just love the shapes and patterns clouds make. I remember laying in the grass as a kid just watching the clouds change, waiting for new shapes to apair. I don't know when the last time I did that was.
