One thing that I have begun to notice is that my yard has some of the best photo opportunities and as I have been learning more and more about photography I have been managing to find amazing things around my yard to take photos of. For example my parents have a rose garden and the roses are currently flowering producing amazing colours that we don’t often see naturally. I love observing different colours and changes in the environment largely thanks to my neediness when it comes to physics and biology. Therefore a lot of the photos I take are taken in order to satisfy this neediness or for future reference.

Other things that are around my yard includes my geese and ducklings that have free roam around my backyard. Many people are afraid of geese as they are protective of their territory however my geese will only get upset if you are not one of my family or if you go into the backyard without me as they have imprinted on me. However the goose is extremely friendly and will take her time to investigate new people. As shown by her inquisitive look below.

The interesting aspects of my yard is something that has always captivated me right from when I was a young kid and I think that the ever changing environment in my yard is something that will keep captivating me right through to the future.
