I was getting a bit tired of using old photos for every challenge but I haven’t been anywhere to take photos lately.
Yesterday I went in to Hobart to meet up with Matt and Ally for lunch so I didn’t take the camera with me. I didn’t think there would be time for pictures if I was going to get home before dark.
I did take my phone though and although I don’t really enjoy using the smart phone for photos, I always seem to get my fingers in the way, I did snap off a few things I saw on the walk back to the bus stop. Unfortunately as my battery was getting flat it turned off wi-fi and the pictures did not import to Dropbox as they should have so I am late getting this post out.

Born in England in 1957 my family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008.
We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. David passed away in 2015 and I'm here on my own now but I have Cindy the dog and Polly the cat to keep me company.
I currently co-write two Wordpress blogswith my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and a "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania.

I like the coloured glass panels. That looks stylish.
I still like to use my phone for photos too. It’s the thing you always have with you. It’s not really a problem unless the subject is too far away… then I usually think “Damn, and at home I have a 70-300mm”.
Yes there are some things that are only good with a zoom lens. I was pleased with the glass. I took the one of the whole window first then thought that the coloured part on its own would make a better picture.

Clever ideas. I was unable to do diagonal lines or birds. No photos at all.
