Sunday Stills, the next challenge: Face Time

This week on Sunday Stills the theme is faces.

During a recent family gathering my parents were keen to get a photo of all their grandchildren together.  As you can see my nephews weren’t too happy about sitting still.  They were about to be bribed by my mother (their Oma) with chocolate which brought out the smiles – but I love the staunch look on their faces in this candid

 

Cees Fun Foto Challenge: Red/Summer

This weeks season is summer with the colour red – this is the bank at the Basin Reserve during this past summer’s New Zealand – India cricket test

 

Travel Theme: Meeting Places

Cape Reinga – where the Tasman Sea meets the Pacific Ocean

 

 

 

WPC: Summer Lovin’

Summer does indeed seem a long way away on a chilly Wellington Sunday in late July.

But the Weekly Photo Challenge theme of Summer Lovin‘ this week brought to mind February’s trip by the Lovelocks Sportsbar Social Club to Tauherenikau races where I snapped my friend Blair.  It was the second time we have made the Waitangi Day trip over the hill – but it looks like it is already becoming a summer tradition

 

A word a week photograph challenge: Red

For a red photo this week I’ll go with the bright Wellington tug boats standing out as they head out into the gloom of a July afternoon

 

 

 

one word photo challenge: aqua

For reasons that I can’t really explain I quite like taking photos of letterboxes – even ones like this which has nothing particularly interesting about it other than its aqua colour

C is for the Cable Car cable (because I didn’t like any of the photos I took of the actual Cable Car at lunchtime today)

Terrific Tuesday Trials: Industrious

This weeks theme on Terrific Tuesday Trials is Industrious.

I went back a couple of days after I took this and the guy had indeed waterblasted the wall clean of all the posters (I liked them – but hey its not my building)
