Thread: Just can't help it :D

Some of you know I had lap band surgery in 2008, which is why the massive weight loss, I havent had a problem with it until today where I could nto get ANYTHING down through it, I couldnt even drink water without it coming back up and trust me when you have this problem it means that there is something wrong and surgery might be needed. I had to call my surgeon and then go to the emergency room. The ER doc was pretty brutal and had no idea what he was doing but while he was pushing on my stomach he must have dislodged something that was blocking the band because the water I had drunk at the hospital went down and I could feel it and was very releaved. I now have about 20 needle stick holes in my belly and some harsh bruising but hey whatever, I can drink and eat again

Coming home from the hospital I needed to keep walking around and drinking water so what else could I do but take photos.

These were all in my back yard surrounding the car park of the apartment.











Oh these two were from the botanical gardens the other day

Glad you got it figured out. I bet that was scary. You made me smile b/c you were still thinking about taking pics. I love that last one. TFS!

that sounds scary! glad the doc moved whatever it was, but sucks that he was brutal. hope it doesn't happen again!

cool pictures, that last one is neat, I have nothing like that near me.

Thanks

Its our war memorial called The Shrine of Rememberance.

the last time I went there was as a kid in school, its next to the botanic gardens

What an ordeal you had to go thru!!! At least you didn't have to go thru surgery, that sounds scary.

As always flowers are beautiful. Are you shooting with a macro lens?

I'm so glad it got worked out without surgery! I love that last flower photo!

Its the Tamron 18-270mm 1:3.5-6.3 macro http://www.tamron.com/news/35mm/18270vc.asp

I am really enjoying the extra 20mm that is has over the one that got broken

I still want the canon 100mm 2.8 though.
