The Australian Museum is showing the Wildlife Photographer of the Year winning entries. The photography is stunning and if the exhibit comes to your town I recommend a visit. Sadly for Sydneysiders it finishes today. Sorry about the late notice ... if you run now you might still make it.
The exhibit includes a photo studio where you can mess around with your camera and take some macro shots of shells, bugs and some long dead stuffed birds. I managed to elbow the kids out for the way to take a couple shots.

A good photographer would have taken the time to find out the type of shell. I didn't bother. |

What a great opportunity! And you made good use of it - I love the shell, whatever it's called! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed at the symmetry of shells and the mystery of their spiral forms. Lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm crazy, but at this range they almost look like eyes to me.
ReplyDeleteNot quite sure what to think of these - perhaps something Madonna would wear?
