Various 2012 pictures with my new camera

[Kirsten]

As you may now, a dear friend got me the Canon EOS 600D in February; and meanwhile, I got really attached to it. In fact, I think this cam is much better than my old 450D, even though I'm still using my old, crappy lenses.

Here are some pictures, various stuff in no special order:












Took this and the next one in a shopping mall and learned later that I wouldn't have been allowed to do that. :-O








Still one of my favourite locations:

Gorgeous, as always. Thank you, Kirsten!

Delicate as air the fronds are still
Anticipating the right breeze
Or a child's hopeful puff of breath
To send it whisping away
With its cargo of seed
Of new life
Of unexpected tenacity
Spinning off into the ether
Wishes and wonder attached
To land only heaven knows where
And continue the circle
Of life, beauty and hope

[Kirsten]

Thank you, Lady's Human!

Karen, what a wonderful poem again, such beautiful words!
