We certainly do have some talented photographers here. I enjoyed all your pictures immensely.
Niamh, Australia must have been an experience of a lifetime, for sure -- lovely pics you got there (my fave was that one of the lone bird -- something haunting about it).
Claes ... you could work for a magazine as a professional photographer, honest!
papayahed -- awesome job of tending to that beautiful flower, and awesome picture, too!
Janine, your garden is so lovely, and the flowers are photographed just perfect.
Fifth -- love the pink clouds. But then I love anything pink!
Idril, your pictures are beautiful as always. Very cute buffalo, awesome pow wow shots. Your sons are sweet, and if I may, Isaac could EASILY be a male model, he just has that look. And your doggy? I LOVED that photo!
Maddie, awesome pictures -- every day is like a holiday to wake up to such sights! Wow!
Kafka, you have beautiful photos, too, I loved the sailboat one the best.![]()

Oh, I love those picture, Niamh! Keep posting, it's like a little travelogue!
the luminous grass of the prairie hides
feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
but weighty and unmovable
As black Dakota hills. ~ Riesa

Wonderful photos, Niamh. I am so glad you could retrieve them from your camera and post them, for all of us to enjoy. The zoo animals are grand and I also love those three Koalas. I like the turtles - I love turtles; all of the animals are interesting actually -you did a great job photographing them! That crocodile photo is a prize-winner. I love the angle and how well you captured the texture on his body...nice lighting in that photo also.
The photos that preceeded these are great. I love that opera house - how interesting a structure it is. I have seen it in travel sites but you took some angles that make me understand how it is constructed.
The harbour looks great; sorry it was hot and rainy but still the photos all came out nice and what a great bunch of memories they are. I will check this thread often to see what else you post. The photo of you sitting on the bear chair is adorable and you look so pretty in that one; so happy and relaxed also. You have a very friendly face - you can tell you would be someone nice to meet someday. I like your glasses, they suit your face nicely.
What kind of a camera did you use to take these photos, Niamh?
Kizzo, thanks so much for the compliments on my garden photos. I like to take closeups. I really need a new improved camera but I actually think my older camera takes better closeups than other photos, such as snapshots; this fact is a little strange to me.
