sunday walk, originally uploaded by John-Paul McCarthy.

Sharon & myself thought that we would walk home from downtown this afternoon.

I snapped this photo on our way through the Auckland Domain. The wide angle of the lens on our new camera added some difficulty in framing this shot.

Sharon is enamored with the ‘pinhole’ preset on the camera. I would describe the Panasonic DMC-LX3 as very ‘musical’ in its image quality. An added bonus is that it shoots RAW format; allowing further image manipulation & tweaking.

Well.. due to the rain and horrible bad weather, we had a more-than-somewhat lazy Saturday. Best of intentions were spoken that Sunday would be more productive.

Fat chance.

Not only did the weather improve, but our good friends Anne & Matteo wanted to meet up for coffee & nibbles at a local cafe.

Sunday evening will be more fruitful. Plan to tidy up some of the preliminary graphics on the site and also establish the final colour scheme.
