Journey Around the sun - Days 11 through 17

I'm being kicked off the computer tonight and I haven't finished editing last weeks photos. But I'm posting what I have. Probably good, as otherwise I'd spend ages tweaking.
Check out my Scavenger Hunt too, most of these I took this weekend, day 16 and 17.  I took car light trails on Saturday, day 16 but I'm posting these with my 'I learned' halfway through the week.

This Photo was actually taken in a shopping centre car park. I liked the hills behind and saw these Dietes. Just below my capture is construction work.

Day Fifteen

I wanted to take a photo of story time but the light was so bad I had to open up my aperture almost wide open and bump up my ISO to 600 so I got heaps of noise. I'll try it again another time. Anyone got any tips?

Day Sixteen

We went into town today. It was an overcast day and rained off and on. I love coffees. That's our umbrella behind the coffee.

I saw a photo of travelator last week. It looked so cool almost Science Fiction like. I loved the style and wanted to try a similar shot on the escalators in town. I so nearly laid on the ground to take this shot and people were staring at me. It didn't turn out exactly as I had imagined but I love it!

These Ibis birds are so ugly and such a pain at cafe areas around town. But I thought this one looked so funny. It was at least a few meters in the air.

Day Seventeen

We went out to a jetty today, watched the birds and took some more silhouette shots. I wanted to take some with star bursts.
