sun shower

My computer has been in hospital for such a long time, she is getting old. Fingers crossed she lasts for a few more healthy years. We have had a lot of rain over the last month. I have been mesmerized by the light show that happens after an early morning shower followed by the sun that shines on the wet trees, which makes the trees sparkle like diamonds. I tried to capture this through the camera however on a focused lens it all seemed a bit flat. As I twisted the lens out of focus the light began to reveal itself more prominently, in soft layers and patterns. Having to much fun!

Ekka 2008

I liked these fruit pattern displays.

I also went and had a look at all the art and craft. 1000's of people went through the exhibition. There was lots of photography, and a couple of really good paintings that stood out, they were very free, relaxed, naive, child-like- landscapes and were sold.

This wall was in our car park. As we crawled back to our car after a fun filled day at the Ekka, 2 little crows were perched high up on this majestic white wall. Rod stopped to take a picture.
