Social pix bank holiday style!

Well it’s August bank holiday and that means only 1 thing a trip to the Sandwell show (post to come). While there JR decided he’d like to be a farmer when he grows up, and that he’d like to start training now, starting with tractor driving! I’m linking this with Darren at onedad3girls

My Sunday photo this week is a proud mommy one. Earlier this week it was my birthday and the children presented me with a gorgeous card. Inside JR had attempted to write his name.

This week my Sunday photo is one where i was testing out my new cameras capabilities at night when my dads solar power lights came on in his back garden. I loved the detailing on the dragonflies and wondered if I’d be able to get a clear photo of them something I’ve never achieved before well here the result, no editing or filter just as I took it. Please let me know what you think!

A few weeks ago I went to a little thing called Brit Mums,Whilst I was there I tried in vain to take some good photos on my 5 year old compact camera. I didn’t get any they were all bitty and out of focus, I also had camera envy, I was envious of all the great photos everyone was getting on their DSLR’s. Now there’s no way I could afford a DSLR or even know how to use one, so I did what everyone in my situation would do I sulked, mopped, dreamed and eventually settled on getting myself a bridge camera. I’ve used my Panasonic zl20 a few times now, filling a memory card more than once,but Tuesday I went on a daytrip to Weston-Super-Mare and I finally got the chance to use my new camera to it’s my full potential. This is by far my favourite shot of the day.

Last night the weather in Dudley was lovely not too hot and not too cold, so my dad cooked the tea on his gas BBQ. Whilst he was doing this the kids were making the most of being able to play outside, because as I’ve mentioned before we don’t have our own garden, and with my wrist in a brace we’ve not even been able to get up to the green as I can’t push a pushchair.
I digress anyway JR decided to play on the toy tractor and when he was doing so said he was Farmer Johnny from redhouse farm which we visited in April for little fun fest.
