An afternoon of Show fun

Mark and I hadn't been to the Ekka in years so when it rolled around in August, we decided to brave the crowds, catch a train and head into the Brisbane Show.  We ended up going on the perfect afternoon as there was hardly anyone there so we had no lines or queues...... magic.  I took my camera and took a few snaps but my favourites were probably the chooks.  Understandably it was a bit smelly but I saw some weird, wonderful and hilarious looking chickens, roosters and birds.

If it weren't for persistent blisters on my feet (had 3 by the time we got home), we would have stayed longer for night shots with the lights but I'm still happy with what I got :)

These were my favourites as well, I love the colours and I love the blue sky peaking through.

FUN FOTO FRIDAY - Week 52 technically and one missed one

These are the final images in my 52 week project and I'm kinda sad its over but kinda super happy too.  Some week I was especially slow in getting a photo up, some week missed out entirely and some weeks I was looking around for something to post because I hadn't picked my camera up to shoot at all that week.

I finish on a 'high' for the final image of the year and it is a totally fun shot of my fun friend Laina.  Whilst visiting our friend Shelley while she was house sitting in Glasshouse Mountains, Laina was very excited to see the trampoline and promptly jumped on.  She is doing her biggest "Whooooooooo" to bring in the new year.

This was week 48 and for some reason, I totally missed it.  It is taken from the stairs at the back of our unit block and sometimes if we're lucky, the horse will jump for right outside our back fence.  Most days I'm either not even aware they are there or when I remember to look, they aren't jumping anywhere near us. 

For those of you who have followed me all year during this project and everything else, I thank you and say "Whooooooooo" to you and to 2012.  I do hope it is by far the best year for us all and I look forward to sharing all my snaps throughout the year xx

(: HAPPY NEW YEAR :)
