While I was busy........ accompanying my parents-in-love as they inspected aged care centres on Friday; watching Miss O and Miss V play their first cricket game Saturday; digging and weeding the garden; and then at church on Sunday........Master J was off on another Duke of Ed. camp with his school.
He took my little pocket camera and was the only camper to take photos of the amazing views.
Soon after arriving home Sunday lunchtime, he handed the camera to me - "Something for you to play with," he said with a smile. His images gave me more than something to play with, they gave me a big smile and a happy heart. I hope you enjoy them too!

| Beautiful sunrise! |
Unfortunately someone had fiddled with the settings and the images were all taken on "small" so definition isn't great but they are still wonderful to me - makes me want to go camping too!
Sharing at Our World Tuesday, SkyWatch Friday.
Great series of beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Wish you a wonderful day.

What a lovely set of photos from down under.
ReplyDeleteCould you please pass on to master j that I'm very impressed in particular with shots 8,9 and 10. It certainly sounds like you've been busy Karen since returning from Dubbo. Lovely photos of the girls playing their first cricket game - such a cute picture of that little guy walking towards the pitch! Hope your day goes well - according to the forecast it's meant to reach into the 30s today, gulp...
ReplyDeleteSuch an incredibly beautiful world you do have, Karen, and breathtaking captures for the day!! I do love the waves breaking on the shore, the shots of your incredible skies the skies and sunsets and, of course, of your family!! Hope all of you have a wonderful week!

Is this the same son who took the other lovely photos you showed a few months ago?
ReplyDeleteThe shot of the suns rays on picture 8 is stunning, and really does show that every cloud has a silver lining.
Yes Rosemary, the same Master J (17). He has a natural eye for a good photo although he rarely uses a camera.

Stunning photo's Master J has taken. Definitely a photographer in the making...or he's just learned from the best ;-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful picures again.....compliments !!
ReplyDeleteHe has inherited the gift of sight from you! It's not just a matter of point and shoot because there's a certain magic captured in all compelling photographs. He sees the magic and frames the shot with this intention. The landscape shots are breathtaking!
ReplyDeleteOh my stars. Those are such wonderful photos. I have to agree. Makes me want to go camping also..
ReplyDeleteHugs~
Gorgeous views! Worth taking all that camping equipment (that part always takes a lot of time! But worth it, when the views are like this!) Love your expression "parents-in-love:)
ReplyDeleteFabulous images! It's not the kind of camera that takes great photos, it's the person behind the lens. These photos prove that.
ReplyDeleteWell, the apple (once again) hasn't fallen far from the tree! He took excellent pics! Totally jealous of where they went! The ocean pics...sigh!
ReplyDeleteOh wow... those views are amazing! I am not a camper, but with views like that, I think I could handle it! ;)
ReplyDeleteyour son has a real talent for capturing God's beauty created for us to enjoy!!
ReplyDelete^)^ linda

ReplyDeleteWell done Master J ! A SUPERB collection of images - just beautiful scenery, especially the sunset captures; breathtaking! Hope he really enjoyed the camp. Thanks for sharing his (& your) photograph talents. Happy weekend Karen
ReplyDeleteThanks Valerie. The photos Master J took were just before sunrise and at sunrise (we are on the east coast of Australia). Makes me appreciate his photos all the more as he was the only one to get up so early both mornings.
ReplyDeleteI have added captions to help avoid confusion.
Some amazing photos! I especially like the hald dozen or so immediately below the tents. My blog
