Default Paddyfield shots for Powerpix’s 1000th
Yey! I am back..i suffered a severe case of DPS withdrawal over the past week..was not here on Christmas and New Year as I was at home in the province where the internet signal is really poor.. I really miss DPS and the wonderful people here..

I was actually sick for maybe 3-4 days..maybe it is just my body telling me I really needed a rest but it was nice being taken cared of at home..as soon as I felt better, I did some shoot in the paddyfield (aka “our backyard)..rain just passed and these are what I found..

These are for Powerpix whom I asked to hold his 1000th til I get back..and he did..

This flower is cute as a button but smells like hmmn...chicken poo..ugh..
Chicken Poo Flower

My fave subject – leaf plus waterdrops
Waterdrops

Caviar anyone? Lol..not really..these are snail’s eggs along the paddyfield..

I love the colors of the fruits in the last composition. They have a nice red.

Well done and welcome back!!!

Wow Jennie! Thanks so much. Those are fantastic!!! Such vivid colors and clarity. I can smell the flowers from here, though not the scent you mention .Glad I waited! I had thought you were back, wasn't sure if 1000 just missed your return or not .
Hope you are feeling better now?

You are getting REALLY good!
By the way, keep the change
