Day 13

The clean up begins for those affected by flood waters!

Day 12

And the flooding worsens, now hitting our local CBD.. Never in my life have I seen this place under like it was!

Day 11

My town ravaged by a stream in the main street! Still seems so surreal!

Day 10

It seems rather ironic, that a few days earlier, I took a photo of my piano with the story about it and how precious it is.. it seems ironic that on Day 10 of this picture challenge, i once again use a photo of it, but in a very different situation :(

Day 9!

Unfortunately with the local natural disaster our area is facing, getting on here to post seemed wrong and was a little too hard! I did take a photo everyday, but unable to post them, so here is day 9..

Day 8!

For my 21st my mum gave me her piano.. she wanted a piano her WHOLE life, then in her 30's my dad got her this Antique piano estimated age of her is about 130 years or so.. it was her dream come true and she self taught the most beautiful melodies! I felt extremely special to receive this as a 21st present because I know how much my mum cherishes this beautiful old girl!

This beautiful old girl however, is the Bain of the men folks existence because, well SHE WEIGHS A TONNE!!! literally! so moving her from house to house is a mission that needs careful planning all on its own lol. She is so heavy, and seems to go into every house with out ever really having a 'place' to fit in! I am hoping to change this soon, when we move the house around with the new extension, I will be putting her into the new dining room, pride of place, she'll finally have a place, to be able to shine :)

photo a day- day 7

Yesterday evening we went bowling with the kids, a first for Bruiser which was interesting to say the least! It was a great evening, I'd like to do it monthly actually, it really was a lot of fun :)

photo challenge day 6

Day 6 came and went really fast, I almost forgot to take a picture!

This is taken yesterday, of the girls playing wii sports... not as fun as it looks, lots of tanties from bruiser because she's too little to play but didn't want to not play! typical scorpio, if it isn't perfectly done, it's crap lol..

photo challenge, day 5!

BJ has wanted a fringe for a while, so today we got our back to school hair cut!

my pic for day 5!

A photo a day!

Today we were treated to some more weather, no storms, but skies that looked to build into one!

Here's day 4's shot :)

It's Dale, my neighbour! He likes to come along on shoots with me, uses my 400D and learns what he can, he really enjoys it, and he's good company!

Day 3!

Today I was treated to a thunderstorm! I have been chasing them for a while, from a distance because hubby says I can't take my car too close :( meh! Anyway, I was watching this one today from afar, and as the wind got up, I was fascinated with how the grass was moving and got a bit distracted lol. Here's one of the shots for day 3 of my photo a day challenge :)

personal challenge

Life tends to get the better of me alot! I plan to keep the house in order, on my days off from work, but then life gets in the way! I plan to learn and grow as a photographer, then life gets in the way... there's alot life has to answer for lol!!

Since it's the new year, and that's the resolution time, here are my personal challenges.. to do a photo a day for January, and to quit smoking in February! Lets see if I can succeed at both, one would be good for now though, because life gets in the way hahaha.

Here's yesterday and today's photo's!

The resident Ant colony, trying to move into my house (bugga about a window being in the way hey ants?!?!)

And here's the new canvas on our wall :)
