After doing yesterday required jobs I decided to take the camera out to play at the  Nan Tien Temple (which is just a 15min drive away). Had fun taking more photos. I thought it would be a good place as there are building, landscapes, flowers, etc – similar to what I’ll be photographing overseas.  Unfortunately I find it hard to check photos in the screen so I don’t REALLY know what I’ve got until I get home. Here are some of my favourites.

Love this guy doing this stretches.

I’ve never been to the temple in Autumn/Winter before and was pleased to see all the beautiful trees.

Unfortunately the lotus pond was rather dead.

I was still playing with aperature priority.

Before heading home I treated myself to a yummy lunch – love that everything is vegetarian :-). You can tell I’m NOT used to shooting food with this camera!

Okay, I warn you now I’ll be sharing lots of PHOTOS over the next few weeks (then even more once we go overseas) as I’m on a VERY steep learning curve with my DSLR. Yesterday I took the dogs and headed down to the lake to work on aparerature priority photos.

Of course, since I had the dogs with me I managed to get quite a few photos of them as well.

This one is my favourite.

Just when I was getting ready to photograph the ducks the dogs took off into the pond. Poor Bailey had his first proper swim as he was attached to Rosie.
