Up, dressed, breakfasted and out the house by 6.15 am to watch (ie photograph) the sunrise. We had carefully studied the weather forecast and knew it would be a clear morning. It was, and warm to boot! Fantastic being outdoors so early in the morning on such a lovely day but our location didn't yield great results and Nick and I both came home a little disappointed with our takings. Still, it was a beautiful morning (around mid-morning a southerly started blowing in gale force, bringing in clouds and cold).
Nick made me a macro lens by coupling together his 35-70mm and 50mm lenses with sellotape. Seriously! I have a deep interest in macro photography and although this lens arrangement is somewhat limiting and limited, it was still awesome to play around with (below: daffodil, muscari (I had to google that) and an apple/cherry/peach blossom).
I was having so much fun playing with flowers that I nearly forgot to get Caleb to his piano lesson with Joan! He's loving his lessons and is very keen to progress. Joan taught him about crotchets, minims and semi-breves and a whole lot of other interesting stuff.

Kyle will certainly want to hear more about that macro lens. He loves stuff like that. (he made a tilt and shift.) The shots you took with it are amazingly beautiful!
