Star of the Show

While we still have another evening to explore the Vivid Festival my star of the show is the centrepiece of the display, our Sydney Opera House. 

I couldn't help snapping away as we sailed around watching the vibrant display on the building's sails. If the weather behaves we'll return this evening to view the show from the land.

20 Something Snaps - A Morning's Meanderings

 Walking around Sydney this morning I looked up above the modern awnings and found some beautiful old facades and one very quaint pub in the forecourt of our accommodation.

Night Mode

When taking photos on my phone I usually just point-and-click. 

This afternoon I went to a session on smartphone photography at my local library and while I didn't learn much I was reminded to slow down before taking photos.

This evening when I walked out onto the balcony I decided to switch my phone over to night mode before I took my shots. The result was most pleasing. 

Maybe I shouldn't be so snap happy and think about the settings before I start taking pics. 

Thoughtful

I was chuffed today to receive a Mother's Day gift. 

I'm always thrilled to receive an addition to my library but this book was extra special because it was chosen by my 9 year old granddaughter. She thought I'd like it because I was a librarian and I like old things.

I had placed a hold for this title at a local library but now I can cancel that.

It's great to be home again after three weeks away, even on a dismal day that says "Go back to bed.

20 Something Snaps of The Pilliga

 Following on from my previous post I am sharing some of the many images I snapped as we drove through The Pilliga today.
