Monday today, so back to work and not so much time to take photos. I was going to do a study of a painted bus shelter on my way home but it was not all that attractive.  So I ended up in the supermarket taking pictures of rows of smarties whilst the checkout lady and all the customers had quizzical looks on their faces. This photo represents “smarter than smarties” .  Step into Kids Open learning School.

Slide out the spool.

Today I had the privilege of being able to view two wonderful exhibitions at the WA Art Gallery.

One, the last day of the W A Indigenous Art Awards and the other the work of  master photographer Richard Woldendorp.  A window seat in any plane journey is always my preference. Flying over this wonderful wide brown land I marvel at the expression of the arial view depicted by some Aboriginal Australians in their paintings. Doreen Reid Nakamarra  (my people’s choice, who sadly died last week) a member of the Pupunya Tula artists, was one very special visual artist. Just how do a nomadic people know what their homelands look like from above?

And to have the two exhibitions together…… magical.

Here is my pic for the day taken at a school fete:

The Box Brownie was my very first camera and when I asked my wonderfully creative husband what I should call my blog that was one of his first suggestions so hence, here I am in blogland. Inspired by one of  my sisters and her daughter following the photo a day this blog is dedicated to the beauty of life, awareness and the simplicity of the every day . It is my intention that this be a testament to my enjoyment of life and  my progression as a photographer.
