Transferring onto wood

Here is a first attempt at transferring with various solutions. I now feel I am getting somewhere slow as it may be. In my eagerness to have a go I forgot to sand down the wood but all that can be done later. There are patches where the transfer hasn't taken
and I am not sure why, maybe not enough solution. On this picture it doesn't matter too much as the subject is vintage.

There is Autumn in the air

The mornings are so much cooler and so are the evenings but during the day
we are having temperatures of around 24deg. Long may it last.
Here is my first shot of Autumn I just love their warm rich colours.

I called this one

Autumnal Tears

 

 

 

 



Vintage Harvest

On a recent trip to Glenbrook Station Vintage Harvest Weekend
I was pleasantly surprised to see Garnet arrive on her bicycle just
in time to catch her train.

Another one on the beach

Urititi Beach Walking with the Lamas

North of Waipu Beach with Steampunk Whangarei Krakens Lair

Amazing weather for the walk along this beautiful pristine beach with long stretches of
golden sand.

 

 

 

 

A Touch of Autumn

This morning when doing the dog walk I detected a touch of autumn in the air.
Somewhat cooler and the mornings are now getting darker. Though the temperatures
are still up in the day.
I saw this little guy on the way it looked so delicate.

 

 





Just made some Banana loaf Paleo style so good thought I would share the recipe.

Beautiful but naughty

These beautiful rainbow lorikeets are feasting on the apples in the garden.
Trying to get them picked before they have all been eaten ! Such a beautiful bird.
