Tiger

One of my favorite places to visit is Dreamworld. On our last visit, the highlight for me was seeing the tigers at Tiger Island. It was beautiful to see the tigers interacting with their handlers in a specifically designed environment without the constraints of cages.

Pretty in Pink

These fabulous fungi appeared after a few days of rain. This photo was taken late in the afternoon when the sun was almost gone. When I went back to take some more pictures the next day, these little guys were gone too.

I Heart Faces Photo Challenge - Jump for Joy

This photo was taken about four years ago. My daughter (then six) wanted to learn how to high jump. So we searched around the backyard and found a couple of pots for the base, a broom for the bar and we had made our very own high jump. It was a great afternoon as you can tell from the smile on her face.

After the Rain

It's been raining for the last couple of days so the camera hasn't ventured out of its bag. Here's a photo from a few weeks ago taken after the rain stopped.
