Lighting the way

Yesterday and today it has poured with rain and is typical of Easter here in the Bay. Each year we get droves of visitors to the Bay for the holiday weekend and every year it pours with rain. You would think that they would have got the message by now wouldn't you.

Autumn has definitely arrived and I am wearing a fleecy top for the first time in months. Tonight we put the clocks back one hour for the start of winter time.

As I have stayed home all day, I haven't taken any photos, so I thought I would post this photo taken in Canberra when we were there last month.

I just loved the way this walkway was lit and I thought I would convert it to black and white to hopefully, give it a bit more of a dramatic effect.

How strange - it usually rains here over the Easter holiday! And we just put our clocks forward!

Typical !! it always seems to be windy and raining here in the UK over the Easter period as well .

Lovely night shot and the lighting is so pretty.

@quietpurplehaze Thanks Hazel, the rain has gone today. We haven't had rain for weeks and over the first two days of Easter the heavens opened. It is autumn here though so we can't complain.
I got used to Christmas being in summer very quickly when we moved here 25 years ago, but Easter in Autumn still catches me out. ha ha.

[Babs]

@gigiflower Okay, I know Sam, Deb told me, she lives in Melbourne. don't rub it in. ha ha. The rain has stopped today though.

@annied @salza @onlyme111 @beryl @pusspup @thistle @ceilidh @novab @seattlite @chimfa @guernseysue @kwiksilver @kathiecb @mittens Thank you all. The rain finally stopped today. 44 mm according to our rain gauge. The garden really needed the rain though, hasn't rained for weeks.
We put our clocks back last night so winter is on its way.

Fantastic b&w shot. I did enjoy the hour sleep in this morning. Still doing some work even though I am on holidays. And yes, I am off to a new station when I get back. But I think I will be at this one for quite a while.

[Babs]

@karlow75 Thanks Kane. Hope you can stay at one station for a while. You move about more than we did when we were in the RAF. ha ha.
