365 Day Photo Challenge

The 365 Challenge asks participants to take a photo everyday of something in their life for 365 days.


They are encouraged to write a sentence or so below it to explain its significance - or not.


Ben Solah and Jodi Cleghorn began this challange last year, and although I was excited about the intricate and interesting images they were capturing, I just *never* got round to doing it... so... here goes... I am committing to 365 days through my lens..starting January 1st.


Now to find my first image.. and not to think too deeply about it...


eek.. what have I done?


Anyone else want to join me?

Dead tree in blue sky

I missed the majesty of this sight by attempting to capture it on film. This dead tree was huge... the sky, so blue...
Those who live OS - especially the expats... remember how blue the sky is in Australia?  It was a gorgeous day and one I was grateful that I lived here.

Bushwalking 'Tude

This is apparently the right 'tude to have when bushwalking..... Thanks Miss L.

Happy Easter

The Marshmallow Bunny Production Line

Here we are making Marshmallow Easter bunnies...

A Dogs Birthday Party

Yes, Scruff was invitged to a birthday party - for another dog.

We brought a present and people food - which was both immedialty consumed by birthday dog...


The said hound was camera shy - though didn't mind showing off his bling ( rhinestone studded collar) I managed to catch Scruff about to give him a birthday kiss... or something


It was a bizzare experience and one I need to write about further.

Ducks out for a walk

Its been so wet and miserable.. even the ducks have abandoned their usual nesting places and been looking for dryer areas to hang out in.

Heres a shot I've just taken - right near our house of a mother duck and her babies toddling along the street looking for a safe place to be.

Suburban Farm Kids

Our Happy Little Farm kids. big smiles.

Lilly adores her chickens and spends ages sitting and talking to them in the garden.  If I allowed her, she would take the chooks into her bedroom.

Nails in a haystack

True to the intention for this year long challenge, I am capturing the theme or feeling for every day.  Here lays my frustration and indicators of my inability as a builder...

Whilst attaching the roof to my chookshed, I had my packet of nails sitting beside be and in one foul ( ha ha) swoop - I knocked them off and into the laying box.  I couldn't leave them there - so undertook the painful process of picking each one up - between the hay and shavings and poo.

For more details on me actaully building the chook run and shed - pop over to the family blog here.
