A lot of my Flickr contacts are aware of the problems I have had with the Sigma 70-200 2.8 lens I bought back in October. It has since been back to Sigma in Japan to be checked out and I received it back on Monday. After taking around 30 photos with the lens the autofocus has decided not to work once again. I am at a loss to know what to do with it, but I will have to get in touch with Sigma to see what can be done. To say I am diappointed is an understatement as it wasn't a cheap lens. As you can see from the photos, it takes beautiful photos when it is working - these are SOOC only resized in Photoshop. A lesson learnt by me: only buy Canon lenses for Canon cameras.

in front of my kitchenwindow a new friend say`s to me:

spring is coming !!

look the Hedgehog family in the garden

Isn't is great to be able to pull out visual remembrances of happy times past? It's like taking a nugget of gold out of the safety deposit box......it was put there for safe keeping to use when your resources have been depleted. Keep plenty of visual resources on hand for those days when all seems dark and dreary. Springtime is making its way through the stormy days of winter, and when it arrives -- REPLENISHMENT will take place almost immediately!

 

NOTE: I will be gone all day today, but will be sure to visit you this evening. Thanks in advance for your visits, comments, and invites. Have a BEAUITIFUL day today! Think Spring!!!!!

This is the place in Amsterdam where the exhibition "Spring is in the air" starts next monday.

Spring flower...aside from the pollen, this is one of the two most beautiful times of the year. Blooming flowers, growing grass, rejuvenation...spring at it's best!!

I find photographing flowers very tricky, and am in awe of all those beautiful flower images on flickr. This is more my excitement at the anticipated 70F on Friday, than any real attempt at being artistic :)

I Have A Dream

 

I have a dream, a song to sing

To help me cope with anything

If you see the wonder of a fairy tale

You can take the future even if you fail

I believe in angels

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels

When I know the time is right for me

I'll cross the stream - I have a dream

 

I have a dream, a fantasy

To help me through reality

And my destination makes it worth the while

Pushing through the darkness still another mile

I believe in angels

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels

When I know the time is right for me

I'll crossed the stream - I have a dream
