Fire engines

Canon PowerShot A590 IS, ISO 200, 1/40 sec, f2.6, 35mm efl

Don't ask 'why'; I don't know ... they were just sitting there so I took the shot. Perhaps it was the colours, perhaps it was the shape, perhaps the boy in me just likes fluffy blue slippers with fire engines on them ;-)

Bedding out

Nikon D80, ISO 100, f8, 1/45 sec, +1EV, 187mm efl, Capture NX2

They were bedding out the plants down at the Botanic Gardens today when the lighting caught my eye ... +1 stop to capture the highlights.

Spur-winged Plover

We can work it out

Nikon D80, ISO 200, f2.8, 1/350 sec, 75mm efl, Capture NX2

I took this one last month; last night I saw another picture in it and reworked it to focus attention on the hands and the eyes - looking down and looking up.
