Antigua Part two

 Before I left on my trip I prepared a little bag with some small hand-pieced hexagons. I learned  now what goes in my carry-on bag - actually everything! Welcomed with rum punch and caribbean music I found out minutes later that my luggage never made it on this direct flight. What a bummer! Standing in jeans and shoes at the beach I tracked straight to the next shop to get overpriced items like flip flops, shorts & t-shirt, bathing suit and lotion.
 Half through my stay it arrived which made me very happy. Here are my cute little hexagon flowers.








and that what relax means to me


Visiting the local fish market in St.John's








These were my favourite photos of the day.



( that photo looks so staged but it's not taken with my iphone)

and of course fabric blowing in the sun


That photo was taken with the Nikon AF-S 85mm F1.8.
I took only this lens on the trip. I love this fast prime lens - super sharp for taken portraits and larger groupings. I do have a 35mm lens but for macro close-ups I prefer my 40mm macro lens.

  1. Oh, what a beautiful place that is! My husband and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary this year and we've been looking for a romantic spot to go. This looks so wonderful. I have just recently found your blog and am enjoying all the pretty things you make. Thanks for sharing.
