Hey David baby, :-*

Here's a sneak preview of my Cornish holiday snaps.  I took this on Thursday at sunset ... I didn't do anything with the camera settings ... just let it decide for itself ... I got the girls to do a three..two..one..jump!  The sun had gone down by then, so there wasn't a great deal of light left, but I love the way it came out  :D



Susie  :)

SUSIE!!! Somehow I missed this picture! I'm sorry. :(

I love it! You are really getting good. I love the effects you captured in both this picture and the one you posted tonight. I noticed you said you did everything wrong when you took the second picture. Sometimes doing everything wrong makes the picture turn out right, doesn't it? That's why I'm always encouraging people to play around with their cameras and push buttons and try different combinations.

Those are beautiful pictures! Thanks for posting them Susie!

I've had a lot on, of late, and my camera's been gathering dust. It was a bright, sunny, early Spring day in Sydney Towne, today; the air heavy with the scent of jasmine. And there was a gorgeous sunset this evening. This pic was taken from my place a couple of hours ago.

Awww Kerry! Thanks for posting your picture. You're always so good at photographing those beautiful Australian sunrises and sunsets. :D

Don't let that camera gather dust! You take some of the most beautiful pictures posted in this thread. :)

Keep up the good work sweetie! :D

It certainly was a lovely sunset last night. Alas, not so tonight, however. It rained heavily for much of the day, today, and there was no sunset to speak of at all, this evening. Just low, drab, gray, sleety clouds. A bleak end to a bleak day.

There's nothing cuter than cowboy ass! :D

Thanks for the picture Jess! Did he even realize you were shooting his ass? If so, what did he say about it? :o
