Showers and thunderstorms are what in store for us today at the Nation’s Capital. My strawberry patch and the rest of my green family in the garden are so enjoying this lengthy wet treatment.

When fellow 365 project doers who live in the northern hemisphere started to complain on the fact that their days are getting shorter, I am rejoicing the opposite here living down under. The day light is getting longer, and the days are even longer still as summer is yet to arrive.
My kids were enjoying that short time post-dinner before they had to get ready to bed by playing with Mr 8’s 4WD remote control car together. When the batteries went flat we knew it was time to go in. They had great fun. And so did I.

A rose this magnificent should not grow in a yard of someone who does not even like roses like myself. But it does. So what do you do….?

I came from the land of black hair and dark brown eyes, that’s why taking photographs of people with other colour of hair and eyes (non black hair, and non brown eyes) is fascinating to me. This boy is the perfect example. R is 3 years old with a thick red hair, dark green eyes and cute freckles peppering his face. His mom and I often have coffee together, but only today I had my camera ready, and only today he could sit still for about 20 seconds after he finished his hot chocolate.
I know that we have to be quick when taking photos of the little ones, but I still amazed how fast we really have to be. Twenty seconds were all I had before the sugar from his hot chocolate kicked in. No time to wipe off the chocolate from his mouth, little boys are known to despise all kind of cleaning, and no time to adjust the set up of my camera. If I could only close the aperture a bit more, I’d be able to get sharper focus on the whole face and hair. (I underestimated the brightness of the light inside the cafe). But again, no one could beat the effect of sugar in little bodies, so in one second when I looked away from him to look at my camera setting, he’s gone…sigh…
Catch him next time, I will.

Aside from nice to look at, having a baby around also can also help to keep you warm. If you are lucky enough to hold/cuddle him, that is. Baby R did not disappoint. Not only he was an eye candy, he was also the source of warmth, for some of us, in this nice but still quite cool day.
Cute pudgy hands were the focus for today’s image. Gotta love those little fingers..!
