first bits of camera fun

A little bit of experimenting on a Saturday morning gives me some pictures to share with you. I know you are also wondering why I am blogging from Noetzie.  I am not - there is no electricity in Noetzie but I was clever enough to "schedule" some postings to publish while I am away.  "What a thoughtful person you are, Jennifer".  "Thank you, I know".

Waiting for the sunrise at UCT on Thursday morning.  Too cloudy and

dark and then it started to rain

 Colin my brother-in-law is pretty smart.  He told me to change the zoom settings on the camera.  Which I did (on my own) and the pictures are much sharper.

 Entrance hall pictures (wrong setting) but you get the idea

 Now this I love - the setting where you pick one colour to be brought out.

 Clever hey?

I could even crop this favourite picture of mine so that you could not see my white Lady Di shoes

(scary canary).  How cute are those boys? 

 Another reason to wear a blue shirt.  A little less cute? Not really.

Amy and Kelly

Now this is proper cute

 The "Eye Collages" I was telling you about, Christine.  I cropped the pictures and cut out the eyes and mouths.  I have had to hide the pictures at the end of the passage.  There are girlfriends in the pictures that are no longer girlfriends but my point is that they were a part of our lives at that time and I cannot keep rearranging my pictures.  So these were the eyes and mouths of 2005 / 2006. 

 Amazing how difficult they are to identify whose eyes and mouths belong to who when they are separated

(Sorry there is a lot of reflection on these pictures)

I must get rid of the date

and perhaps start by using the auto format and not be too fancy

With love from me

to you
