    Cute little fellow, we get Fairy penguins coming ashore usually about dusk and then they head out to sea at Dawn

    Great capture, Gary. He looks like he is a fair way away from the water

    The rocks along the bottom of this image are just above the tide line. So yes.

    Thank you Ray. At some point I would love to visit this area when has just finished raining.

    Very nicely captured. Like the cascading flow. Reminds me of some of the falls in Yosemite National park, US. BTW, how big is the falls?

    Thanks for the comments Sundar. This is a place I would like to return to after a good downpour. The base of this waterfall is actually the base of the waterfall in the previous image.

    Thanks Ray for the comment.

    Even though the bird is tagged, it is out in the wild so to speak. But these birds are very curious. I did have one sitting on the drivers wing mirror, and it was too close to focus on.

    I thought that I could get up nice and early the next morning and if the weather was nice, maybe include the sun rising on the mountains to add some colour to this image. I set the alarm, went to the same location, and........

    IMG_3703.jpg

    Well the idea was there.

    There is no way that you could get sick of that view. Very nice.
    Those are the sort of images that I really like. Now I just have to decide which one I like better. Nah, can't decide. I like both.
