Art and Practice
A good friend of mine recently purchased the Fujifilm X-T20 mirrorless camera. I did help her work out what to get and she is happy with it. Lucky for me, I also get to borrow it. So I took it to the zoo on the weekend and took photos of lots of thing, including the butterflies.

Well, I’m embarrassed to say that I forgot to post about the photo challenge yesterday. It is photo challenge number 7 and I was so carried away with other things yesterday that I didn’t let you guys know that it is Wildlife this week.

Had to give the Tamron 24-70mm G2 lens back and in place of it I was loaned the 150-600mm G2 lens to try out. The Melbourne Zoo seemed like a great place to try it out and see how it would go.

With my friend Marsha here from the US, I had to take her to Healesville Sanctuary. It is part of Melbourne Zoo and where you go to see everything Australian. All the indigenous animals, birds and plants are there. I don’t know if they are all there, but must be pretty close and you get a good idea of what is here. We do have some rather unique flora and fauna.

Yesterday I want to the Healesville Sanctuary and decided to use the Lensbaby Velvet 56 to take photos. It was an interesting experience. Don’t get me wrong, I loved it, but you do get rather interesting images. I had to rethink what I was doing and photograph everything slightly differently.
I am going to show you the photos of the animals and birds today. There are Koalas, Kangaroos, called Harriot and Earl, an Emu, some pelicans, a Heron, a couple of Tasmanian Devils, a Wombat called Florence, and finally a red tailed cockatoo. I hope you enjoy seeing them.
They are all Australian, Healesville is a great place to see all the Australian Flora and Fauna. This is just a sample of what is there.
I hope your weekend is going well. Maybe you might visit a zoo near you.
