Lazy Friday afternoon

On the way home, on a high as I had my new R1800 printer in the boot, the moorings in the creek caught my eye as a photo op so had to stop and have a play.

I liked the serenity of the scene. Hope it does the same for you.

The printer is awesome, noticeable improvement over the six year old 1220c which wasn't shabby, but technology marches on.

And here are a couple of trees that were nearby.

All taken with the kit lens.

John,
LOVE the first shot. The serenity that this photo sets is tranquil and hmm..just beautiful. It was a sight for sore eyes, I'm at work at the moment...I won't tell you what I've been dealing with for the last 2 hours as you'd probably be eating brekky when reading this hehe. well done. I have the R1800 too...I get excited whenever I use it, sad really :D :D

The first one is great, and the kit lens for the D0 continues to impress me as being very good value.

What you've taken here reminds my of Cedar keys in Florida. An absolute backwater with a couple of great restaurants, right on the gulf.

Let me see if I can add a couple of images from there. The last time I was there there was a bent Cessna 152 off to the side of the runway, having landed in the gulf a day or three earlier.

No security issues at this airport, btw. The roadway just continues on to the runway, and there are houses off to the side, with their backyards being the airstip, and their front yards being the Gulf Of Mexico.

Cool village ... I have a friend who lives not too far from there, and he's spoken about buying a property there to use as a programmers' retreat.

I love the composition in #1, it's a beautiful shot. #1 is my favourite though I do like the others as well.

Thanks for the positive comments guys.

For those who know Brissie, it is Oxley Creek, taken from the Pamphlett Bridge at Tennyson. Was negotiating peak hour traffic and the scene looked so peaceful I couldn't pass it by.

Your right, Geoff, I don't want to know, happy to improve your morning. :D Don't be sad though, isn't that why we have our toys?

Cheers, John
