I made cameras for the great-granddaughters. They love them and took hundreds of photos with them on the first day.

These are made the same way as an idea in a post on AUSOM’s website except I glued wrapping paper to the parts before I heat glued them together. I also made a smaller lens.

Creativity Challenge Submission #11

This is an animation I created a while ago titled, ‘Oasis’.

Also an article about creating the animation, ‘Have Music Will Travel’. It shows how one can still travel abroad despite the current pandemic restrictions.

OASIS – Have Music Will Travel

Creativity Challenge Submission #12

Our daughter sent me this photo of her grandchildren having lunch under a swimming whale. One of them is holding up a toy fish for the whale.

This is her story
“There were plastic container lids in the drying rack on the sink under the kitchen window catching the sunlight. They made a blob on the ceiling. One of the girls asked me where it was coming from. When I started moving the lids (4 of them) around I realised I could make pictures.
“I made fish and a stingray and then the whale appeared.
“After lunch, the girls played outside for about 1 1/2 hours. When they came back in they wanted to know where their whale had gone.”
