Sydney Easter Show 2010

Recommended Posts

OH and I went to the Show on Easter Monday and we thought it would be a great time to play with our new lens: a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Lens aka The Nifty Fifty.

Neither of us had been to the Show in over 12 years so we were a little excited...

I love the balloon sellers and their huge floating mountains...

After we watched the AmStaff judging I issued OH with a 'food on a stick' challenge. Now being my husband is a hard job, I insist challenging him to eat food on sticks (which is a challenge that cannot be denied by the way) so his reluctant breakfast at the Royal Easter Show was a Dagwood Dog.

Does he look thrilled?

Being the Nana-craft enthusiast I am, we visited the Craft Hall

Mmm tasty: award-wining few day old marble sponge

Lovely quilts

And knitted treats!

But we spent the most time at the Agility and Flyball demo ring!

Cheering on Ashoka!

What a naughty Collie!

(side note: this lens isn't that great at long range, we knew it but were too lazy to change lens :D )

And Jedi!

And marveling and the weaving

Then it was on to the Farm Nursery, to visit the vicious ACD pups!

And the woolly sheep

This man just tried to swap you for a Frenchie puppy!!! :cheer:

I'm sorry we didn't join you now. Cheese on a stick, yum! :D Did you see the Ironklad Amstaff kids winning stuff?

:p Don't you worry about him, he'll get his :rofl:

Yeah! We saw Ironklad and their massive AmStaffs!

Poory Dutch looks like a pipsqueak next to the pure breeds, poor little rescue mutt.

What a surprise to see Soaks and Jedi in your photos! :laugh:

Food on a stick challenge... Sounds like something I would do! I haven't been game to try the cheese on a stick though... what was the verdict?!
