Hello chickadees!
Note: I have a phobia of cane toads.
As some of you know I have a passion for taking photos and only a matter of weeks ago my father gave me a rather expensive Sony a65 camera for my chrissy present!! :O So, i have been taking hundreds and hundreds of amazing photos. I have ridden my bike down to an old battered house, chased butterflies from flower to flower in the heat of the day and today I spent some time photographing my model dragonfly. Now, let me tell you, this dragonfly was the best insect to photograph. He just sat there on the bromeliad plant working his stuff; he even turned around to face my camera lens directly - quite the model. All was going great; my model was working his magic. It wasn’t long and he decided to fly to a leaf closer to the camera; even better! I propped myself up to better view Mr. Dragonfly and quickly glanced behind the foliage to check the sight was clear. Quietly resting on the beautiful contrasting bromeliad flower sat a fat, evil eyed toad! I swear I almost had a heart attack. I had been leaning closer and closer to this dragonfly for some time now, completely oblivious to the cane toad which sat directly behind. No surprise that was the end of my photography session with Mr. Dragonfly today.
Aside from that shenanigan I have finally graduated high school (last Thursday) and since then have been to Schoolies. And tomorrow I am flying down to see my mummy furthermore to Melbourne, where we will then road-trip along the Great Ocean Drive. I am quite excited!
Hope your days have been good to you.
Until next time
