Just some of my favourites

This week I had a browse through my many photos and I picked a few of my favourites to share with you. They are from here, there and everywhere! Enjoy!

This almost looks like a painting!

I loved the look of this tree...

Beautifully blossoming rose.

An interesting facade, I thought.

My favourite flower.

Getting dinner for the family.

Old trike, new petals.

Gorgeous grevillea.

Seeds from a flower.

Thought this fella looked nice, so I took his pic!

The Southern Highlands and surrounds

This was a planned trip (they are rare!) and unfortunately the second day of our little Southern Highlands adventure was a little wet. Lots of sun while we were at Shellharbour and Kiama, but as we travelled through Berry, Fitzroy Falls, Kangaroo Valley and Robertson, it wasn't so nice. We still had a great time and I did get some good ones...

A small beach at Shellharbour.

Crashing waves.

The Kiama blow-hole was in top form.

The lighthouse.

A peek inside the Berrylicious Cafe at Berry;
do yourself a favour and pop into this lovely
 little place, if you find yourself here one day...

The Hampdon Bridge, entering Kangaroo Valley.

Ray mooed. Loudly. The cow looked.
I took the shot...then laughed.

Nice habitat.

The magnificent Fitzroy Falls!!

MAGIC!!!

A mural in the "Old Cheese Factory" at Robertson.

We got out of the rain and had a lovely latte within the
factory, with this gorgeous view. 

Lake Parramatta Reserve

This week, we took a drive to the Parramatta region and upon entering this lovely reserve I found a sense of calm come over me. It was wonderful walking along the lake and to top it all off, we had a lovely encounter with some surprisingly tame Sulphur-crested Cockatoos. A beautiful experience...

First thing I spotted, I liked the angle of the branch

Contemplating...

A Dusky Moorhen.

A side view of the lake.

See the dragonfly? That's as close as I could get
unfortunately...

Munching on a tuft of grass.

"Hey, what are you lookin' at?"

"I'll scratch your neck if you scratch mine..."

Prospect Reservoir

Last Saturday I bought a new camera and we took it for a little 'test drive' at Prospect Reservoir. When we got there it didn't look like much at all, but I managed to find some aesthetically pleasing images. I hope you like them!

Light at the end...

Through the trees.

A pumping station.

Reeds.
