reasons to be cheerful, one two three…

in Distractions galore!,fauna and flora,Hope,photography

As I am sitting here trying to find the right words to start this post with, a movement out the window catches my eye and I watch four Green Rosellas fly into the branches of a gum tree. Seeing them perched there is a reason to be cheerful in itself, I love these birds, their clinking musical calls, their very Australian beauty.

It is now ten am and I have been fiddling with photos and daydreaming away on the computer for well over two hours. No wonder time just slips away from me. I wont mess about with any more words this morning as they have become unnecessary, the title of this post really says it all.

Yup, they sure are reasons to be cheerful for. Happy Monday, Kim.=)

Beautiful distractions, in a beautiful place. A little bit home sick now, but, the photos help me feel better.

Words are not necessary Kim when you present us with such perfect pictures.

Your glorious pics have made me happy too!

I have been thinking of you – but now that the first semester exams are over and the course a quarter done and I am on holiday (just as the kids go back to school, I am finally catching up) – sounds like the Twitterati had a lovely time and I adore the ceramis you are making

Hopefully will get south later in the year

The eagle in flight is the most marvellous picture.

The rosella reminds me of the ones I hear squawking in the gum trees on the Parade while I walk to work. Very pretty.

The wedgetail is flight is awesome, and the triangular compositon of the photo is pretty great too :) )
I love your photos.

Ah, gorgeous.

Beautiful pics.

The sight of a wedgetail eagle soaring in the heavens makes you catch your breath in awe doesn’t it?

INCREDIBLE shots! That last one is breathtaking.

Such beautiful captures! The moon is just gorgeous, too. =)

Patti June 19, 2010 at 2:10 am

wow wow wow, that and two other thoughts come to mind: first, I can’t believe this beauty is in your everyday life and second, I see you’re getting really comfortable with your new camera!
