Things that are broken – a photography challenge …

Every week I get an email from the Digital Photography School with lots of interesting articles, tips and challenges.  I just couldn’t let this one go past without giving it a go. (and if you know me at all you will know that there is no shortage of broken things at my house)

The dog photo is included in this post – not because she is broken – but because she is really peeved with me, I just gave her a bath and she wouldn’t look at me or acknowledge me for the entire afternoon – I think I might be forgiven now, but I have no way of telling because she is fast asleep in front of the heater (with her back to me oddly enough!?)  Oh well, I am sure I will be the love of her life again tomorrow at breakfast time.

Enjoy the post … can you tell what each photograph is of?

 

One Sunday at the park … …

 

 

 

One of the hardest things I have ever had to do – sit in the backseat and be driven around by my daughter and her friend! But at least we went to the park for a photo shoot.  Sometimes I wonder if maybe they are just using me for my camera? Nah – surely they just love to spend quality time with me?  Oh well – never mind – at least they look good in the pics.  Here’s to Britty and Kate ..

 

 

 

Party like it’s your birthday …

Was recently asked to photograph a 13 year old’s birthday party. I forgot how much fun it was being that age! So much laughing, dancing and having a blast…

ANZAC Day … …

25th April is the day we remember those who have been to war and went to fight for our freedom.  We remember those who came home and those who died.  We honor those who risked it all so that we can be free to be who we are … … Thank you … …

Last of the summer swimming …

Happy Easter everyone.  We spent our Easter swimming at Goat Island – it’s a marine reserve north of Auckland and was amazing.  Unfortunately someone left the underwater camera in the car, but there are a few goodies from the beach.  We all had an amazing day, but I think we caught the warm weather just in time because it is freezing here now!  Thanks Mum, Trisha, Luki, Daniel, Britty and Lexi for being such willing and amazing models (gotta love your family huh?).
