Wow 46 weeks of sharing my forgotten photos has been a lot of fun. Next week my daughter is getting married on the Saturday and I reckon that I will be exhausted from all the frantic racing around that I have done in the lead up to THE WEDDING (and yes I think of THE WEDDING in all caps now) So would someone like to host Sunday Selections for me next week please?
Rightio now on with the show.
The Blurb
I take a lot of photos and most of them are just sitting around in folders on my desktop not doing anything. I thought that a dedicated post once a week would be a good way to share some of these photos that otherwise wouldn’t be seen by anyone other than me.
I am also remarkably absent minded and I put photos into folders and think that I will publish them later on and then then I never do.
So I have started a photo meme that anyone can join in and play as well. The rules are so simple as to be virtually non existent.
Just add your name and URL to the Mr Linky.
Publish your photos on your blog using the “Sunday Selections” title.

The Photos
This photo is for Elephants Child. Last Sunday I published a photo of misty trees in my backyard and in the comments I mentioned that I had a photo of an eagle in the same tree. And so here it is. This photo was taken with my Lumix point and shoot in 2009.
This is a small Bream that I caught and The Spouse is holding. We let this Bream go as it was too little to eat and I am concerned about heavy metal toxicity in fish.
This is a photo of a seagull. I really like this photo.
The Zinc works is a huge factory on the banks of the Derwent River. I am fascinated by all the industrial paraphenalia, the pipes and railings, the smokestacks and the conveyer belts,the tanks and rusty roofs. Once I have had my fill of photographing the heavy industry of the Zinc works I like to take photos like this one to remind myself that life could possibly just be a dream.

Thank you sooooo much. How majestic, how simply glorious. I’m sorry, I did go through all your photos but kept returning (as you knew I would) to the first. An eagle and a eucalypt. A girl can’t ask for a lot more.
Heh. Do you want to host Sunday Selections for me next week?
If no-one else sticks up their hand, yes I will (I feel I owe you that for the eagle). However I will need detailed instructions (remembering I am an ignorant newbie) about how to set up your linky thing. You have my email so please send the step by step to me there.
I really love the dreamy ones. Very soothing to contemplate.
I do as well. A friend then introduced me to Clarice Beckett’s paintings which have the same dream like quality and it was love at first sight.
I often dream of sitting by the sea and relaxing 🙂 Then I have flashbacks of falling asleep on the beach and getting badly sunburned :: oops ::
Love that majestic eagle Kim. And the unfocussed photos are very intriguing. They have given me an idea for a little project.
one, two, three four five, once I caught a fish alive.
six, seven, eight nine ten, then I let him go again.
Love the eagle.
I wouldn’t know how to host a post for anyone, but I see Elephant’s Child has offered to learn, so maybe another time for me.
Boy, it’s really embarassing to forget your own name…
That said, I’m so happy to have found you all. I’ve just started taking pictures again afer a long, long dry spell, and am beginning to revisit my old work and play with textures and stuff. Kim, your photos are beautiful, and thanks for mentioning Clarisse Beckett…what wonderful paintings she made!
hehe, you are in good company here Linda. I might have forgotten my name once or twice as well but I cant really remember. 🙂
Hi Kim, love the eagle. Glad you released the fish again. Really like the out of focus shots. They are intriguing.
