I've seen a fair few of these and thought I'd try my hand at one. First attempt and it's a little 'brown' for my tastes.
Great fun and really easy to do. Big thanks to everyone making lockdown videos of how to do these type of effects.

Firmly in the category of 'things you never knew before lockdown.'
I bought myself a Helios lens to play with and it arrived today (it takes a looooong time to get from Russia to Australia!). Just in time to amuse me during our latest hard lockdown which looks like it is going to last a while :/... So before I pulled off the front element and flipped it around so I can play with all the exciting bokeh I took a couple of quick portraits of my lil companion and now I don't think I want to mess with my lens! It's so soft and dreamy... though I think I'm too presbyopic to cope with manual focusing haha

Daylight Saving Time ended at midnight, and we're back to standard time. It's certainly more pleasant, waking as the sun rises rather than an hour before.
I was luckily enough to witness a biblical light show for the start of Lockdown III at Roker on a small detour to the supermarket. I’d had my daily exercise at 5:30 walking the dogs, is that me done for the day.
I have set myself a lockdown challenge too only take photos in my garden or from my garden. It is going to be interesting to see what effect this has on my photographic skills. With no travelling involved I will be able to take advantage of the change in the light conditions, and hopefully this will help me improve my eye for a composition.
Stay safe Stay Home.
LOCK-DOWN
For the last month because our health is not at all good, we have been on a lock-down. We are fortunate that we have had relatives and good friends who have helped us in our time of need. Going to shops, the pharmacy and our local hospital to pick up vital stores and medicines.
So to everyone a big Thank you and a message of ‘Keep Safe’ to you all and your families.
I show this series of photos to show that we are keeping busy, listening to music, reading, painting and my latest venture into cooking via video link with my Granddaughters. We made a coffee and walnut cake last week but I ate it before I remembered to get the camera out.
I’m currently listening the Beatles ‘All you need is Love” and it seems very appropriate to the occasion.
Best wishes to all

ps I dedicate this to my friend Vince, it's the surname.
A teddy looks down onto our passivhaus village green space on day one of our new lockdown. Ten people with covid in NZ outside the quarantine hotels. Now it is confirmed to be delta variant most likely from Sydney. It just took one missed visitor ...My second shot of vaccine comes up very soon.

I took this Image back in August 2019. Not knowing that it will get a new meaning in 2020! Right now here in Gemany we are in Lock Down 2.0 and now the image speaks for itself.
Hang on and stay strong + healthy! This bad times will pass by - sooner or later!
Vielen Dank für Eure Besuche, Kommentare und Sternchen!

Anzac Day, when Australians and New Zealanders gather to remember those who served in the armed forces, and those who never returned to their homelands. No traditional Dawn Parades this year because of the lockdown, but many of us were up to see the sunrise and to offer remembrance in our own ways.

In this stage 4 lockdown, hairdressers are closed and I am really starting to need a decent trim. Who knows what we all will look like when we are finally allowed to be well groomed again! Happy Sliders Sunday :))
Week 17 in 52 Weeks for Dogs
For a dog without many brains in her pretty head Tasku is definitely showing her serious side these last few weeks of lockdown. She's still having plenty of race around, crazy barking moments but it seems whenever I get the camera out, this serious face is what I get.
