peace and serenity

good Morning all

how are you today?

Well, I hope

and enjoying your weekend

seems that all the hubbub in blog land is calming down

I ran into quite a few skirmishes last week

seems the

"nasties"

were out and about doing what they do so well

I very quickly clicked the "get me out of here" key

and left them to their gloomy selves

 

it was gloomy enough outside

not to want to spend time with silly people

who think they know it all

and don't like it when someone has an opinion different from theirs

let the sheep graze with their own kind

I say

 we had the winds until late last night

except for a few limbs blown off the trees

and all the chairs outside upside down and thrown around

we got off very easy

the power stayed on

but up north once again those poor people were/are without

so glad we don't have that power company

soon after my post yesterday

the sun came out and the whole day changed

the power of  sunlight is an amazing thing isn't it?

bright and shiny trumps dark and gloomy any day!!!!!!!!

it danced on the water and made diamonds

the only kind of diamonds I like

and the wind blew in all the debris
 but I didn't look at that!!!

the clouds broke up and started floating in big puffy groups

south of us

I can't imagine how windy it must have been up there
or how bumpy the planes rides were in all that turbulence

as the clouds drifted and moved, the light changed and it so very intense at times

I couldn't see what I was looking at and just clicked

leaving the camera to do its thing once again

I have told you how much I love my little camera

haven't I?

maybe a time or two

:}

I truly don't know what I would do without it anymore

there are so many photos that I don't show

because if I did I think I'd break

blogger

and Flickr for that matter

but I can't delete them because I can still  see

whatever "it" was

that made me take it in the first place

I also have a whole group of "just one"

a shot that was, for me, perfect with just one click

and voila there is what I saw

of course there are all those that didn't work out

and have been deleted

and the blurry ones because in my enthusiasm I moved too fast

or had the macro on when I shouldn't have

or the bloody bird I'm trying to take

 flew away and all I'm left with is the blur of it's flight

to be truthful.....

when trying to capture the birds, that's the only time I wonder what a "real" camera would do

I see so many bird photos taken with lens's I know nothing about

other than....you can get a bird shot

but really I know I wouldn't do a real camera justice

so I am very happy with what I have

truly

madly

deeply

:p

I mean I couldn't look at this and not squint or cover my eyes

but it can

it can look straight into the sun and see the brilliant light up close

and just say

"snap"

and then look up 

and

in a nano second

adjust and

capture the puffy white clouds way over there

yes, I love my little blue "eye"

be it up to the sky

or all the other places I shove it

 she does not......

mummy's angel baby is camera shy

and I really should respect that

.....................................

yeah in her dreams

:)
