Day 8 - 08/01/17 - Starling

January 8th 2017 – Starling – Sturnus vulgaris Linnaeus

I put some broken up pieces of bread out for the birds today (which isn’t really anything unusual for me, they’re so cute that I cannot resist feeding them) and I thought maybe if I am quiet enough this time I might be able to snap a nice picture. Not long after I put the bread out, the sparrows and starlings were munching away on the bread, seemingly happy. Until a big flock of seagulls (like 10 of them) came swooping in to steal the food! Don’t think I have ever had seagulls in my backyard in any other house I have lived in. Crazy! hehe!

Six days into 2017 and off to a good start here. Weather has been a bit wet and windy but everything is still looking beautiful.

I tried to capture this stunning Calla Lily in mid bloom today. The wind wasn’t helping at all, nor the lack of sun but I am happy with the outcome.

January 6th 2017 – Zantedeschia aethiopica – Calla Lily

I hope 2017 has been kind to you so far. 🙂 x

I had a great time visiting Amy for lunch/movies yesterday. She let me take some random photos so I could get one to use for my photo a day thing. I managed to get a nice one of Alvin but I got a few other beautiful ones. (Click here to see the rest of the gallery). 🙂 It helps that they’re all so beautifully photogenic!

Alvin- Blue Mink Bi-Colour Shpynx
Alice – Blue and White Greyhound
Keira – Blue Standard Poodle

Plus six months later, Frankie has grown into a beautiful and healthy young kitty…

2017 :)

2016 was a great year for me personally. I got to watch my brother get married, I was able to reconnect with my best friend (of coming up 14 years) and we are now closer than ever and I also purchased my first home. I was also blessed in many other ways too.

It was a busy year with work (extra jobs) and what not so I didn’t have a huge amount of time to spend on my photography or any thing else really but thankfully I anticipate having a lot more time to spend on it this year.

I have many plans for this year (not just for my photography) but for starters I hope to be able to achieve the photo a day thing I attempted in 2014. So to get the ball rolling, this is my first photograph for 2017 and also my image for January 1st 2017. (The gallery for the remaining days/months will be on the side menu)

Day 1 - 01/01/17 - Venus flytrap, Dionaea muscipula

Special thanks to Amy for helping me decide on the final features my new watermark. 🙂

And a huge thanks to all those who have always been there to support me in all aspects of my life. I wish you all the best for 2017, keep safe. xx
