Running a busy family farming business often means that the kids and I take over the responsibility of checking water tanks and animals when the farming men are working elsewhere.  Normally I take the camera on these excursions because if I don’t, I regret it. Taking a few photos also adds a fun dimension to what can be a fairly routine job.

There is no shortage of red dust, animals and open horizons.

 

 

 

 

I also love it when I get the opportunity to take photos of completely different scenery.   Recently we travelled to Mildura for a big family wedding.

As we wandered away from breakfast at one of our favourite cafes we took a detour down a nearby lane.  While dodging the early morning delivery trucks and forklifts we admired some graffiti we hadn’t noticed before.  I am not sure if this art is legal in this particular location but our walk quickly turned into a spontaneous photo shoot.

 

The kids were not totally focused but that added to the fun.  We look and feel quite different in our town clothes and the colours and contrasts in these shots just make me feel happy.

There was some sad news in parts of the blogging community yesterday and also some sad news closer to home.  Friends, remember to be grateful for all of those little moments.

I hope you have some nice light in your world today.
