How my blog got its name

March 7th, 2007 1 comment

Update (Jan 2009): from my original blog at http://snap-happy3216.blogspot.com replicated here since it has a nice photo :)

Once upon a ti…. oh wait, thats for a make believe story. Well I’ve had several people ask about the name for this blog and so I decided to write it down. Not long before I started writing in here, I realized my digital camera needed more memory. The piddly on board memory block only carried up to 16 hi res pics at a time. Read more…

This pic is from the main rose gardens at Hamilton Gardens, a nice spot for a picnic or just for the kids to run about!

This rose is gorgeous, Despite the simple flower, it arrives in masses and captures many of the best colours all in one show :)

It was a bit cloudy and we just had some rain when I captured this rose, Just before it really opens up, into a large (~10cm) spread

Colors run riot!

Here is a pretty, delicate rose. The peach colours last for ages, and all the flowers on this variant have really delicate petal structures. Stunning I say!

Christmas day went off without a hitch, which was really good. DJ was able to see all his cousins and tomorrow we will visit with the great grandparents hopefully. I’m looking forwards to seeing Mums rellies. Of course the food is great too! Hope you had some fun at the very least, and best wishes for the rest of the holiday season.

For those who had to work, well at least you were able to help make days like this possible for others, and you should be proud of this. Thank you :)

Anyway, be chatting again soon…
