show me some skin

Took this during a (mostly disappointing) hike to Gunung Kutu a couple months back. I held my camera with one hand while holding the leaf with the other to prevent the slight breeze from ruining the shot. At the end I finally managed to get a clear shot

crowning glory

Not content with the usual bird shots, I was looking for something unusual when it came to the cockatoos. I was in the bus waiting to leave when I saw this one in the midst of spreading its wings, which proved to be an interesting picture.

Tucked in

Taken at the aviary in Melbourne Zoo (a Brolga, it seems?). Even though this section of the aviary was supposed to simulate tropical climates, I guess it was still too cold for it to bear.

awesome blossom

I've been so damn lazy to update my blog, but since everyone's been asking, here's something I took in the Melbourne Botanical Gardens last week. I'll gradually update my pics over the next couple of months =)
