Thank you for looking at my work. I use a Canon 450D and 7D with Canon and Tamron lenses. Some of my work is manipulated in software, often using textures and sometimes blending with 2 or more images.

Another ripper from Wagin – that was quite a productive trip you had! Back in the 80’s we drove through Wagin countless times without ever bothering to stop – times have changed by the looks of things!
Great work
Peter
I’d say times have definitely changed here Peter. When we used to go to the Field Day some years back it was nothing like it is now. This historical village is very recent and the Field Day is more like the Royal Show now. I rather liked it when it was just in a large paddock. Now it has streets.

To have a tidy little home of one’s own is still a dream for so many of us!!!
And me Dandy. Trouble is the bigger the home, the more we seem to fill it with stuff, alot of which is completely unnecessary.

What a fantastic little cottage! They had it tough in those days!
They sure did Carol, but guess they didn’t really know any different.
