^ I stayed on plantation Island when I went to Fiji last year! One of the nicest places. Our Bure wasn't that close to the beach though, lucky you!

& in the background of the pic 'Dale Thomas lookalike' I think it's the guy in the blue shirt facing the camera, I think that's Bill, he was so nice to us, our family became friends with him! :D

It was our third visit to Plantation Island, and quite a few of the staff remembered us, Bill, Bola, but Michael has moved on with his uncle.

We love the place, and wish we could spend longer there.

Hehe, it's really hard to get me blushing, thanks BBHS. No, I'm not a professional.
Photography is something I've thought about but never bothered with, until I decided to buy a DSLR 13mths ago.
Since then I've wondered about the interenet searching for advice on our to use the bloody thing.

I'm still learning and believe it or not, the lenses I'm using are standard. I'm saving to purchase a "proper" landscape lense that will set me back $1500aus.
