LaLa Life 40

A photo a week in the life of LaLa Photography, using various photographic mediums

Week 40

On the second day of the Royal Show this year, our family woke up to grey clouds with rain drizzling down. I told Andrew that if it does rain, we wouldn't be able to go to the show. 

In response Andrew broke out into prayer. He started praying, like he was taught at school, for the rain to go away; speaking to Jesus as if He were a mate readily available on speed-dial prayer.

After a few hours the rain stopped, the grey clouds went away and out came the sunshine; Andrew's prayers were answered! By the time we left the show, the day was really warm. 

The moral of the story - praying works. Regardless of who or what you choose to believe in, if you really want something and are willing to wait for it, your prayers will be answered. Just like Andrew's! 

Felicity (my Polaroid Instax) came with me and I took a few snapshots of the boys' and cousin Kaitlyn's first visit to the Royal Show. This is LaLa Life for week 40 :)

LaLa Life 39

Week 39



This is a picture taken by a photographer of another photographer taking a picture.

Lit only by the candles on her cake, in the background is my niece Kaitlyn who was about to blow out the candles when she seized the opportunity to take a photo of her 4th birthday cake.

I couldn't help but laugh when she picked up her toy Dora camera to take a photo of her cake.  I mean, couldn't she see my big expensive camera and lens that was within the vicinity of her cake and face? She must not trust me to take a good photo of the cake or something :P

Once she took a photo of her cake, Kaitlyn fulfilled her duties as the birthday girl and blew out the candles of her cake.  It was the perfect way to say goodbye to being 3 years old and saying hello to being 4 years old.
