Daily Sonriendo's 365 - Finished and thank flickerty for that :D

Well you may as well add another 365'er to the jealously list with those pool shots!

Loving the dogs in them haha!

Today's... Lovely tone, really like it :-)
 
Pool is looking better :) If you want dogs that keep away from water, I can recommend whippets, one of mine wouldn't walk through puddles & none of them would go for a walk in the rain :) Well unless I got their racing gear out then they would go out in any weather :)
Like todays shot, nice use of DOF & nice colour tones.
 
Well, I've got two haters, two that obviously love it and the tiny pup fell in this morning and spent the rest of the day sleeping, so I'm not sure what category she will fall into :)
 
The view in 104 looks beautiful Sarah. 105 is really cool too. Loving the DOF!
 
Thumbs up for pencils :thumbs:

Thanks guys :D

Well, today's pic is of the newest incomer - still not managed to find anyone to take her yet :( And having spent most of today clipping and bathing my two long haired dogs, I'm not entirely sure I want another one :lol: Took it like this, so you can see just how tiny she is :love:

Sorry Sarah but you can't get rid of that cute fluffball.!!!! :-D
 
Blimey it is tiny, and just look at the concentration on its face,
trying to figure out how to open the beer :D
 
Great holiday shots, Sarah - I particularly like the cubs, the London Eye shot (love the toy bus effect!) and the monkey....although your burger looks very tempting to me right now as well!

I like your 100 - great idea for the shot as well and it works well.

I think you might have to keep that puppy! Sorry! :lol:

And therein lies the problem ;)

Bit of a filler from yesterday

Oh look summer flowers & the leaves aren't even out here yet! LOL.
That is very pretty Sarah :)

Sorry, but I have to say that I have some sort of flower in bloom all year round - not always very exciting ones - but they're there :thumbs:
 
Another crap flowery filler today

And as an added extra - you lucky people - a nearly 100% crop of a bee eater :lol:

I actually saw one the other day about 20 mtrs away from me, but alas no camera - hopefully I'll get lucky this year.
 
I'm rather liking the flower fillers... Pretty :-D
 
I love that first flower photo - very unusual (to me) look to it. The other one is great, but not as great!!! :lol::lol:

Those bee eaters are colourful!

Thank you

Great shots showing the POOL improvements, please can you not show anymore now -thanks :p

Love that pup.....

I can't promise about the pool ;)

She is very cute and very well behaved.

Those bee eaters are colourful!

I'm quite determined to get me a bee eater this year, they are quite beautiful but very nervous and quick ;)
 
Yesterday's offering, which I was unable to upload yesterday as I went out for dinner straight after work :) Just an odd bit of junk hanging in a dead apricot tree :lol:

The apricot tree got a good pruning one year, resprouted and then just died, I've left if planted there as my intention was to buy some sort of climbing plant to climb up it - must put that on my shopping list. The pulley wheel? Well, it needs to live somewhere :D

Well, I'm getting there with the Bee Eaters :)

Short of actually building some sort of hide and camping out for hours on end with the camera on a tripod, I really don't think that I'm going to be able to get much better than this - unless it's by pure luck of course :)

Still pretty blurry and I'm guessing that's mostly camera shake.

That's a cracking bee eater shot well caught :thumbs:
I'm actually quite jealous, we don't get stuff like that here, in the wild

It's still pretty crap though :lol:

I'm just contemplating a perching place and a hide down in the field now :thinking:

Not really,
I can see what it is and how colourful it is :thumbs:
And as you said, they are pretty flighty,
I remember trying to get them in a zoo / bird park type place, before

Don't forget to add a few bee hives then :D
 
SARAH!!! ... day 106 ... rather young to be hitting the hard stuff... o..m..g... you encouraged him / her !!
 
clearly she's worked out how to shove a pencil in the side and crack it open... she's fooling you! plus she seems to sort to know a rosé from a belmont
 
How could you resist that puppy?! Please send her over here :D Loving her against that background!

That bee eater is gorgeous too. I just love their colours.
 
Nice to catch up on your shots. Love that pulley, it will look great with a climbing plant round it. As for the bee eater, good luck with your hide :)

Hmmm, plans may have changed :D Tree might just have to be chopped down to make suitable Bee Eater perch :lol:
 
So, yesterday evening saw me with the lovely Amaya and her family doing pre-communion photos. I tried to convince them otherwise, but they were insistent :shrug:

Very nice Sarah, I would be tempted to crop this a little bit from the top and bottom though, maybe remove the bottom part of the wall up to the first line, unless the little heart on the wall is integral to the image and then a little from the top & maybe remove the red post in the background. The little girl however looks nice and natural.
