It's been easier this week for me to find some weekly winners, because I kept some shots specially for this post :).
I've had a better photo week this week (apart from getting quite good results at Camera /Photo club on Wednesday), and I've graduated to using the manual/creative modes on the camera - I still have a lot to learn about exposure, aperture etc as I had to adjust most of them in Photoshop! Talking of which, I think I should get proper PS instead of Elements, I'm dying to use actions.
We went to Parys last Sunday, and I again took some photos from the moving car :)

I had to take a few days off work this week because I had no-one to look after the kids, and I took them to a tea garden to play on the one afternoon (There are more photos here).

And I can't resist showing you these too. Connor picked a flower for me yesterday, but by the time I got it, it was all mangled... and this is why...
Daydreaming
Study of a blue flower
Hmmm, smells nice

Wow, the detail on some of these is just amazing! Every week you outdo yourself.
so many great ones. :) 5 and 7 are my favorites. Great variety here. :)
The country in the top two is very similar to some Australian landscapes.. Lovely lovely images Jenty..
My favourites are the study of a blue flower though :)
cheers kim
Very interesting landscape, looks so dry ! Nice selection of pictures !
So beautiful! I love the landscape and the one with the little windmill...so cool.
That last photo is so sweet. I love the horny goat too!!
What a great set of shots - they are all so wonderful, it's hard to pick a favorite.
The windmill one is great, as is the pineapple lilly!
Totally great shots, Jenty! I am having a ball watch you work this new camera and look forward to more, and more, and more.
Love, Love!
You've got some lovely pics here Jeanette. I love the goat and the hairy cactus :)
I especially love the first three!
I really have to get a better camera.
awesome!! the ones with conner and the flower are too sweet. i want to eat him up!
The pineapple lily is gorgeous and the details on the goat are excellent!
The mangled flower shots are my favorite. So adorable and such a capture of kidness. Perfect!!
I really like the texture of your shots. And the cute baby ain't so bad either!;)
Have a good week.
Awesome as always! The cactus shot is amazing, what a great shot!
Beautiful pics Jenty! My faves are the windmill one, the 2 flower ones, & the last one~that last one is precious!
On a side note, I've been trying the last 2-3 weeks to comment but haven't been able to. I finally got it to work today~I had to sit here & keep clicking on the comment link! Don't know what's up w/that but I wanted to let you know that I haven't been ignoring you & I have been trying to comment :)
There all great shots but the pineapple lily is amazing.
Beautiful shots Jenty. That Lily one is divine. Once you go into manual or aperture priority modes I swear you will never go back!
I love the landscape ones. Impressive that they were done from a moving car. I also love the shots of the boy with flower. So cute.
Isn't it funny the things that bring emotion.
Burnt...I used to hate the burned veld and couldn't wait for the new green of spring. It's something I haven't seen in the 10 years since I left SA (can you believe it's been 10 years already!). Yet, here I am, with tears welling up looking at your Burnt photo. I even miss the things I hated! What a crazy girl I am :-)
Awesome photo's - as always!
Your captions and photos are truly amazing. I love "day dreaming." His eyes always make me melt :)
I love Connor's wee chubby hands. He's totally adorable.
I have no idea why you think you need any help from a photography tutorial written by me. You obviously know what you're doing. Fabulous shots, all of them! Especially the pineapple lily and the goat. Oh. And the last one, and the second to last one, and the third to last one. Er... Especially all of them.
Horny goat. HA! :)
Very mature of me, I know.
And I love these photos.
