Re: A Very Aussie Christmas...

[Paul Stenquist]

Thanks for the pics, Tanya. Christmas in the Southern Hemisphere kind 
of looks like....well...Christmas in the Northern Hemisphere. With the 
exclusion of course of the water going the opposite way when the toilet 
is flushed <g>. Seriously, there is a summer brightness and lightness 
that makes it distinctively different. I was down there once for New 
Years Eve, and it reminded me of our USA midsummer holiday, the Fourth 
of July. I especially liked photo "N," the young boy kissing his sister 
on the forhead. Good catch. And Happy New Year to you and your 
delightful family.

OT - but just wanted to post a little page that I put up for family and

 I
thought that you guys in the Northern Hemisphere in particular, would 
be
most interested to see the contrasts in the way we celebrate our 
Christmas
here in Oz, in comparison to yours up there...  I think it was Paul who
mentioned this?  You'll all be glad to know that we didn't get 
sunburnt, but
had PLENTY of opportunity for it, had we not been careful...

Sorry, folks, no pics of me in this lot, I was too busy BEHIND the 
camera!
(and cleaning up the Christmas aftermath!)...

So here's the link:

Some shots taken with Pentax equipment, but not many as I am still 
waiting
on films to come back.  Most were taken with my new digital 
enablement, that
isn't *sigh* a Pentax...  But LOTS of fun, nevertheless...
