Maybe his name is “Diamond”? 😉 I’ve been reminiscing about my trip to Amsterdam in April this year and taking a look though the photos on these cold Aussie winter evenings. I really loved these shots. Lucile and I were playing with the 60mm macro lens on my camera and took a few shots inside…

Photo101(1): Home is where the Heart is.
What a challenge! Â I spent the day at work, thinking about what home means to me, and occasionally checking the feed to see what people were up to. Like many of the other participants, I’m no longer living “at home”, as in where I grew up. Â My parents have moved away from there as well,…
