So with the 12wbt over for now, it’s time to start changing things up a bit on this blog!  I’ll still be posting fitness updates, and yummy photos of yummy food, but I am also going to start posting some of my photographs that I’ve taken recently.  Starting with these ones – over the Christmas break the three of us (my husband, daughter and I) went up to visit my mum.  She lives on roughly 600 acres in the middle of nowhere – solar power, tank water, etc as she’s too far from town to easily get any services.  It’s a magical, relaxing place with so many photo opportunities and it doesn’t hurt that my mum is a keen photographer too.

This first lot of photos are a sunset, sunrise and night sky.  We really lucked out this time and due to a lot of rain and overcast days these were pretty much the only decent sunrise/sunsets we had while we were there.  And the sunrise was on the morning we left…  This was also my first attempt at a night sky shot trying to get some star trails – I wasn’t overly happy with how it turned out, but plenty of time to try this again another time.
