Felucca in the Nile

This is another old photo, was taken while I was in Egypt in 1993 on my old film camera. Unfortunately quality is no the best either. Thankfully though I still have all my negatives.
These boats are so nice to photograph & this one sailed quite close to our boat.

Clematis

Well, so much for adding a photo a day. Have not been able to log onto my laptop for a couple of days as battery was not charging & main power was not getting through either, it turned out that my power cord had split. Was thankfully able to get my hands on a replacement one pretty quickl, so I am up & running again thankfully. Todays photo is another one that I took as I was wandering the section here at home. Love the colour of the clematis & spider web adds to the photo.

Avenue of Trees

This is a photo from my pre digital days, was walking through Matamata one spring weekend & happened to walk through a grove of trees in the middle of the day, the sun was shining through the spring leaves on the oak trees & the light was amazing. Wished I'd had my camera with me but unfortunately I didn't. Went back to the grove one morning before work and got this shot, was very pleased with how well it came out. Have often gone back & taken other photos here but none have quite lived up to this one, for starters the track has never been as apparent as it was that morning. But I have a feeling I'll keep going back & maybe one day I'll get something that lives up to this photo. Maybe!

Comet

As I was have troubles last night & didn't publish a post last night shall add a second one tonight.
This is a photo I took of Comet McNaught when in was visible over New Zealand a few years ago.
This comet was an amazing thing to see & was the best one I had ever seen. Was really pleased with the photos I too of it. This is one of my favorites.

autumn Colours

Took this photo a couple of years ago when a friend and I were out looking for scenery that her Aunt would maybe like to paint. Something must have attracted my attention in order to take this photo. It wasn't until I downloaded it into my laptop that I noticed somethings that were actually in the photo. The main thing that comes to mind is the fence, had no recollection of there even beeing a fence in the photo when I took it!

Butterfly on flower

Was collecting the mail for my neighbour the other day & had my camera with me. There were a few white butterflies flying around so hung around & waited until it looked like a had a decent photo. Was very pleased with how this photo did come out as LCD screen on my camera broke the other day so I have been functioning with the viewfinder which thankfully my camera has.
