an opening thought....

Welcome to the Images by Sophie blog; sunrises, people, places, there's a bit of everything with a story or two thrown in for good measure. All the work is my own but some stories may be embelished, names changed and identities hidden. Mr reasons are three-fold; to protect the innocent, defend the guilty or just to make stories sound more interesting than they were in real life. I hope you enjoy the photographs, occassional story that goes with it and will come back from time to time.

Lavander Bay....remember sunshine?

Soooooo........it's been a while eh? I hope everyone is happy and healthy, if not why not?

I'm well and truly over all my sicknesses, I've decided that a positive mental attitude is in order to get me back on track and I'm 80% sure I'm going to be attempting the Half Marathon in May... Hamstring Tendinopathy recovery willing....



Right... picture things... I miss the sunshine today, so here are a few from a lovely sunny lunchtime down at Lavender Bay. A change in season is definitely upon us dont'cha think?


Friends of mine are moving to Paris in a matter of weeks, so Dave and Lisa, I thought a harbour view was in order just to make sure you weren't looking forward to leaving toooo much! (Although I wouldn't hold it against you - I mean PARIS? COME ON!!!)


Lavender things in Lavender Bay


After thought; I like the word lavender.... I like the way it feels in my mouth when I say it. Lavender Lavender Lavender.

Charlie Sheen moment?!!


sunday strolling

My friend Candice has a split lip, but it's ok, you should see the other guys! She's a tough nut.

No, thankfully it's a basketball related injury.

Hearing her tales of woe made me reminisce about a stoll we took together a few weeks ago from Dee Why around the headland to Curly.


It's ok, it's only a photograph. Phew.



Gushing waves


A jolly nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

The curliest of Curl Curls

Is it nearly the weekend?!

Bike Buffs

On my lunch time expedition to Lavender Bay I met a group from Bike Buffs on a tour of Sydney. Lovely bloke who was guiding these lovely ladies... didn't get his name unfortunately! (Post script: his name is Graeme - thanks cobber!)


I can't remember what I was planning on taking a photo of, but this struck up a conversation! Anyhoo, for more info visit http://www.bikebuffs.com.au/

I love the sound of doing something like this! I'm such a tourist! Anybody fancy joining me?
