Carnival of Flowers - by proxy

I was invited to H & R's house this morning to have a look at their photos from the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba on the weekend.

Their camera is a tiny 'point and shoot', but they were really hoping that I could do something with their photos.  The best I can do is share them with you.

Most of the photos were taken in the harsh midday light ... and worst of all, it was a Nikon camera!!  (chuckling quietly to myself, knowing that I have a couple of Nikon using readers)

So here are a few select photos, with compliments of R & H ...

The lovely R&H

I have seen enough photos on facebook and flickr from this beautiful carnival, that I have put it on my bucket list to attend one year.

Today was a quiet day for me.

Nature has gone into hiding during the school holidays, so there are no birds, lizards, kangaroos or other wildlife to be seen in the area.

I remember, last year, almost putting my camera away during the September holidays because there just was NOTHING to photograph ... except noisy, boisterous kids.

Twelve days and counting down til the end of the school holidays!

Twelve days and counting down til my town gets back to 'normal'!

But who's counting?

Nite all
