Speaking of a gift

Okay, recently I have been obssessing on taking photos with my camera. No, I don't have new lens, or some other new thing (not counting that my boyfriend bought us matching camera necklaces/straps). Must just be the increasingly better weather. Slowly we are saying goodbye to winter, and in a week's time we would be entering Spring time! How exciting!

I have been posting my photos on my other sites, and am encouraged by the number of people commenting and viewing them. I am now thinking of coming up with gifts for Christmas and considering putting all my really nice photos (favorite ones) in a digital picture frame to give to my parents and my boyfriends' parents. His dad absolutely loves photos as much as we do, so I am sure he will like this. We may even think of giving them these ones on our wedding day as our personal souvenir to them. It is amazing whoever came up with this thing!

I just had to share these Sydney pictures

I've posted these pics on my other site and thought I'd still just share them here as well. These were taken by me early this month while I was flying back into Sydney.


Amazing photos if I may say so........ Hope you like them.....

South Coast Weekend Getaway

Last month I went to Bulli for three nights, and it was one of the best holidays to date. Not because we saw so much, or done a lot of activities, but really it was just sooo relaxing. I'd do it again if I could.

Here is a photo taken by hubby on one of the nights. Not the clearest one as we didn't have our tripod with us. Nonetheless, still enchanting. The beach, with the moon and its reflection in the water. Should you wish to check out some more of my Bulli photos, click on my Coriander Dreams entry.

Small Luxury Hotels Photo Contest

As much as I am a traveller, I am a photographer wanna-be as well. I need to work on the latter though as I am so not a techie person! But even so, I still would be entering this Small Luxury Hotel photo contest! :) I think I have a few nice captures myself. I'd just have to ask hubby to check on the technical aspects (eg, size, MP,etc).

About three weeks ago a colleague has won any 3 nights at any SLH (Small Luxury Hotel) property anywhere in the world!! (I am SO jealous!) Imagine if she chose to stay at Casa Del Mar in Mexico, or Huvafen Fushi in the Maldives, Six Senses in Thailand, The Oberoi in Mauritius, or Lungarno Suites in Florence, or any where at all!

And then this SLH Photo contest came along through email! I've got a one in a million chance now! :D Oh well am doing it for the fun of it anyway! By the way I've got myself a two night stay in a property in Australia to use anyway! So I should be happy!

Just thought I'd share this one with any budding photographer out there. (Share me one night if you win okay! Kidding!)
