Plugging Away

Recently I came across and joined a local photography group, Lake Macquarie Area in Photos on Facebook, that issues a weekly challenge or two to its members. I love a challenge so I very quickly entered some photos as it is an opportunity to share some of my better snaps. As I am mostly sharing photos of Carey Bay the focus of my One Place Study it may help me to connect with people from the local area. 

I have received lots of positive reinforcement from members of the group and even received an honourable mention for my first entry. Since then I've had a few honourable mentions. 

One of last week's themes was "Shimmer", I was overjoyed when my image of the moon's reflection in our Backyard (Lake Macquarie) was chosen as photo of the week. As well as gallons of personal satisfaction I was rewarded with my image being posted as the header image for the week on the Facebook Group.

Meanwhile I am plugging away building biographies of Carey Bay People in RootsMagic and adding data about Carey Bay Places to the Place Page on this blog.

I have started adding profiles of Carey Bay People to the online WikiTree. You can see the Beginnings of this activity here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Carey_Bay%2C_New_South_Wales.
