Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Sense of Seeing


Eye Candy

These photos are some of my favourite types of eye candy. To be honest I could have chosen all my pictures from my collection of Huon River photos. Obviously I am a sucker for boats, water and reflections. These first two are amongst my favourites.

Yukon hails from Denmark but now carries visitors on the Huon most days of the week.

I remember the day that David called me to show me the Rosella’s in our garden. They visited a couple of times and I took a lot of pictures of them. This one is one of my favourites.

The Botanical Gardens was always a favourite place to take photographs and of course I love to photograph my own flowers in the garden.

Here are a couple of more recent eye candy photos.

Taswegian1957

I was born in England in 1957 and lived there until our 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. In 2015 David became ill and passed away in October of that year. I currently co-write two blogs on WordPress.com with my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania. In November 2019 I began a new life in the house that Naomi and I intend to make our retirement home at Sisters Beach in Tasmania's northwest. Currently we have five pets between us. Naomi's two dogs Toby and Teddy and cats, Tigerwoods and Panther and my cat Polly. My dog Cindy passed away aged 16 in April 2022.
