Happy (Shadow Shot) Sunday folks! It's a duckling talking to a cherub on a turtle! This cherub is sitting in the middle of a pond in the beautiful Fitzroy Gardens in Melbourne. Ah! Melbourne! That joyous holiday I had there three weeks ago seems like a distant dream now! *sigh*

Perhaps this waterfowl is doing a double-take, looking at something that defies logic (to a duck, that is :) These gardens have to be beautiful, as someone that designed the place with water and statuary. A lovely Oz capture, as usual...

Such a lovely photo Sam! The poor turtle looks like he's straining from the pressure! And yes the news of the brown snakes in flooded waters is awful. I cannot begin to imagine what those poor people are going through. I have to say that a few interviews I've seen with the folk in the flooded areas have really surprised me. They appear to be in quite good spirits! Gosh, I'd be an absolute mess and unable to manage to string two words together for an interview with all the blubbering I'd be doing. The strengths of those communites is impressive.
Are you still on holidays? I return to work on Wednesday. Aaarrrgh! Enjoy the rest of the weekend Sam xo
