A couple from Sue

Well i am back from a week in Cairns, and you have all been busy on the blog!! - it took me all night to read what you been doing, great work everyone and you have all made me keen as to get to the scrapping table again!!

Looking at challenge 12 and my photos from Cairns i have some that can fit into the categories and i would like to share with you... no fancy camera here, just a point and shoot but using different settings etc...




The colours of the butterflies in FNQ are just brilliant, waiting for one to sit still for a photo is one hell of a challenge, but i was quite pleased with how this shot turned out...and using the macro setting blurs the background, focusing in on the subject nicely.



I love sunsets!! This one, is the boatshed at the wharf at Port Douglas, and i have used the giant fig tree to hide the glaring sun but captured the reflection across the water. One of my fav photos!


And the Zillie waterfalls, i love how the sun peeping through the top of the photo, giving the photo that misty look that you get at waterfalls.

ooh Sue. You must be a mind reader to know this challenge was on while you were away. Your photos fit the categories beautifully.
You looked very relaxed today. And so did Rob. I was talking to him outside before I saw you.
Lots of scrapping pages and stuff coming up I see.

Lovely photos Sue.
Love the yellow butterfly... how long did you have to wait for this shot? Sarah took some photos of one in our back yard not long ago and everytime she went to take a photo it would fly off...
Hope you enjoyed your time awsy.
