Blame it on the boogie

As I write this blog I am out in the sunshine, listening to a bit of MJ, while my boyfriend is slaving away building a deck. I have been attempting to do my homework but so far all attempts have failed, but I wont blame the sunshine because MJ is telling me to "blame it on the boogie".

Anyway I recently went for a quick drive up to Waterfall Gully and took a few pics, I was finally messing around with a few other settings on my camera. However, I dont have a digital SLR camera so its the best I could do with what I've got haha.











--- Quote of the Day ---
"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God.

Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all problems"
- Anne Frank

♥ My Love for Animals ♥

I have always had a passion for animals! I love taking photos f them because they always look interesting and ofcourse incredibly cute! These are some photos I have taken of numerous animals and also some that have been taken of myself with animal encounters at zoos.

Eleantics - Elephant encounter at Melbourne Zoo



The elephant head butting a ball. She was one of 3 female elephants that were recently saved from a working camp in Thailand. She was a lazy worker and would have been killed if the zoo didn't save her. Now she gets to play all day and gets the best food and care.



Dolphin encounter at Sea World.
This was my third dolphin encounter at Sea World and also the best.
