Sparklers

I learnt a new trick with my camera over Easter (taught to me by our 11 year old daughter of course - how else would I have figured it out??). Love these shots of Phoebe and Sam playing with sparklers out at the beach. A good way to add some 'sparkle' to an otherwise cold and wet day......

Toadstools.....

Has been such a long time since I posted anything - and now we are in full swing having another gorgeous Wairarapa AUTUMN. Love the daily changes and colours of tree foliage, the harvest time, planting time, and general garden overhaul after our long hot summer. I found these gorgeous toadstools at my father's garden - the fairies must have heard me coming, though, as there was no apparent sigh of them, other than their red spotty houses......
