Colourful Birds

I hope I have a 70-200mm F2.8 to shoot this picture as this is the maximum I can get nearest without scaring the birds away. It was taken at Adelaide in one of the animal park there. ;)

Little Train

Small little train

I took this when I was in Melbourne Museum. I quite like it as it got a bit of tilt-shift lens feeling although just blur a bit on the side. Hope you like it as well..;)

We stop by to have a tour around it as we are heading to see Twelve Apostles at the end of the Great Ocean Road and to reach Adelaide as our next destination from Melbourne.

Wine Tour Around Barossa Valley, Adelaide

Barossa Valley is located at South Australia where is the wine-producing region, really thanks to Hai Wei for bringing us to such an interesting wine tour around Barossa. We had a wonderful time on tasting and buying some wine there. Although a bit disappointed unable to see the real grape growing as still not the season yet but still ok as able to taste some fine wine.

Smile

Little kids smile is always adorable. When they smile at me, sure I will smile back with them and are you the same when they do that to you? Don't you think it makes you happy back when you are sad.

When I was in Sydney, I saw this group of school kids having their outdoor trip around Botanic Park near the Opera House. They bring their own food for picnic purpose. Even they are still kids but they still know how to behave them self.

Below are some of the picture I snap while they are waiting their turn group by group to enter the restroom.

They know how to pose when the camera focus on them

Time to go

Just a simple smile will always make people happier or a better day, no matter yourself or others. I hope I can smile more like them...;)

Sovereign Hill, Ballarat

Some shot while visiting Sovereign Hill at Ballarat's. It was famous for its gold digging and currently is open as a museum for visitor to experience how people in the past live in Sovereign Hill and also how they discover the gold.

For me maybe something else attract me rather than the gold, is their lifestyle and how they live here.

This is somewhere interesting to visit if you arrive in Melbourne and you will feel like you are in the cowboy town as well and try your luck to dig some gold here...;)
