Sunday 18th July

The boys are starting to get better at playing together. This morning I took a video of them intently building a battleship together. It is nice to see them interacting more now, especially when it doesn't involve (much) hitting, screaming pushing etc! Here is a link to the video:

I took the boys down to the foreshore this morning for 3 reasons.

1. To get some exercise
2. For the kids to play at the park
3. For me to take some photos

On the way in it was looking very grim as we got closer to the foreshore and it even started spitting. But once there, it seemed to clear up a bit - on land anyway. There were some awesome clouds and rain happening out to sea, which made for some great photos! So I practised a bit of landscape photography, then used hte boys to practise some portraits!



They played in the park and we had morning tea before returning home.



While they ran amok in the house after their sleeps I processed my photos and had fun playing around with different types of post processing. I then had the hard task of selecting one to represent my photo for today in Project 365. In the end this is the shot I ended up with:


I have added some of the other shots in, as I think I got a few good ones today - well I'm happy with them anyway!!





Oh...and before I forget, I won this week's online EB Photo Challenge of Sculpture, with the shot I took back on Tuesday of the Steel Tree. I almost changed that entry to one that I had taken of the Catalpa Memorial today. Glad I didn't now!! I have chosen the theme of BUILDINGS next week. I am interested to see what different things people can do with this theme.
