My family and I recently took a trip to Melbourne over Easter and I came back with some nice captures:

All of the animal photographs were taken at the Melbourne Zoo. This is one of my favourites.

Big, gorgeous and fluffy brown bear

This orangutan mother was hilarious. She had her baby clinging to her and was trying to get the father's attention before pulling a sack over her and
her baby, then she proceeds to lie back with her legs in the air. Very funny.

The lemurs were funny as well. There were three of them hanging around and all of sudden, two of them ran over to this twig and, I swear to God,
performed something of a circus trick. It was like they were performing for the crowd ha ha. My dad laughed so hard.

I didn't realise it at the time but I love the texture that the wood gives this photograph. I was mostly going for the shallow depth of field but it
all works nicely.

St Patrick's Cathedral, stunning interior as well as exterior.

I really enjoy the visual dialogue here - the two men are talking to each other and the horses heads are leaning into each other as well.
