Looking back through photos of the snow trip and I just had to show you these ones. My daughter has this amazing spirit and ability to make you laugh no matter what the situation, so here amongst our sadness driving home, she finds some humour at the Big Merino!

We received some bad news over night. My husband’s grandfather passed away suddenly. Very unexpected. Today we drive home with frequent stops for hugs and remembering the important things in life – your family and spending time together. Some shots of the landscape on the way home.

We stopped overnight on our way to snow – it is a long drive from Sydney. We woke to frost and a frozen windscreen on the car. While hubby was clearing the windscreen – I took some shots.

We are leaving to go to the snow today, and of course my husband and daughter are sick with a terrible chest cold and both on antibiotics! A great start to the trip – yes we still went – nothing stops us from the snow! Crazy.
Photography assignment: Lost in Light – I like this one with help of daughter posing for me.

Driving home from college and I hadn’t taken a photo yet. So decided to take one with my mobile phone camera, as I waited at the lights! I like all the dash lights and the traffic lights.

Some shots over the next few days, from my course – Imaging assignment. We were given words and had to take journalist shots to represent these words. Enjoy. This one is : blur a car, slow shutter speed love the lights left behind from a bus.

Day 243: Ok I am well and truely behind in my blogs, my apologies. I will be playing catch up, as have been taking photo’s all this time, just haven’t had the time to blog them. The juggling act of mother, wife, housekeeper and now student has taken a toll and this blog site was the first thing to give. It’s times like these we need ice cream to motivate us – so here is my next photo – copenhagen icecream window – devil chocolate for me please!

Day 242: A day of outdoors, green recycling all the tree branches to the tip today. We then went down to the beach for a bit of exercise and fresh air. We ended up walking quiet a way. The motivation – collecting mini shells for a fairy shell garden – my daughter’s idea – how sweet. Here’s the collection.

Day 241: The busy wet week has taken a toll on the family. Two sick and on antibiotics and two of us (me included) trying to keep the bugs at bay. Researching typewriters on the internet – amazing the old styles out there. Think I’ll get myself one, may come in handy with design course…yes that is all I focus on and talk about lately, sorry if I’m boring you with it
