My Favourite Things
Lighter
An early train and a sunrise run - two signs the days are getting longer.
La Roseraie
The rose garden (la roseraie) in the Parc de la Tête d’Or has an abundance of flowers at the moment. For a lot of the year it sits there quietly, unadorned, in shades of green.
Raindrops on Roses
During our holidays, I spent a rainy hour or so reading. Then the sun came out, and this was the view out the window.
A Neighbourly Gesture
Thank you, anonymous neighbour, for sharing your delightful flowers with us.
Rainbow
A recent storm gave us this view from the kitchen window as the sun came out again.
Hybrid Video from Canon IXUS 265 HS
I really like the hybrid video mode on my new Canon IXUS 265 HS. Here is a video of Lyon’s zoo using the hybrid mode.
My New Camera: Canon IXUS 265 HS
Once I had decided to buy a new camera, choosing one wasn’t difficult. I went with the Canon IXUS 265 HS.
A Few More Flowers
I like the ethereal quality of these flowers

My quick summary of Kahuna: fun, strategic, very competitive, and easy to learn.
