Arctic wolves of Zoo Brno

Another photo blog today. I am planning another trip back to Europe and can't wait to visit all the zoos again. Zoo Brno in the Czech Republic is famous for their arctic wolves. There is Atilla the alpha male, Clair and Alex are the females and have both produced pups and then all the kids!
The Arctic wolf is a subspecies of the gray wolf and live in arctic areas along the northern edge of the North American continent and northward to the North Pole, as well as along the eastern and northern shores of Greenland. There habitat stays very cold at around -30 degrees C but their coats are very think and insulated form the harsh temperatures. They generally only have a lifespan in the wild of 7 years and live in small packs. The only predators they have ot worry about is polar bears, other wolves and humans.
Hope you enjoy the photos :)

The name Mali translates to english as Jasmine. Hope you enjoy these photos of her and if you are in Melbourne, come and visit :)

Photos of tiger cubs at Melbourne Zoo

Today I'd like to share with you a few photos of the tigers cubs that have been bred successfully at Melbourne Zoo. The sumatran tiger couple have had two litters of cubs so far. The first time our female Binjai had three cubs but sadly one of the cubs had drowned so only two survived. The next time she had four cubs and all of them have been growing up happy and healthy. They will be sent off to other zoos when they are about two years of age to continue with the breeding program. This will ensure they will not go extinct in captivity but of course we hope they do not become extint in the wild either.
So I hope you enjoy the photos of these cuties :)

Make money with Redbubble

I decided to write a short article today about Redbubble. After all these years being on Deviantart I feel I haven't really gone anywhere. I've made lots of great friends, some I have gone overseas and met them in person, others that I want to still go over and meet. But the point is when it comes to being serious about growing as an artist and putting your work out there to sell, Redbubble is the place to do it. So for those who are interested here is the article --> Make money with Redbubble Any feedback that you have is always appreciated.

And now I leave you with another random photo, it's one I have for sale on Redbubble:

The royal wedding

Well here in Oz we have had an extra long weekend and it's back to work tomorrow (oh joy!)
Since I've been home I have been watching TV and you can't go 5 minutes without hearing about the wedding of Prince William and Kate. I'm really happy that he has finally found someone, Kate seems nice but all the hype about it is wearing me out in a way. All these ads and all the "free memorabilia" you can get to celebrate etc. I just feel very weird about it, maybe because it's a change but it really shouldn't affect my life in any way. Is it just me or does anyone else feel this weirdness?

Anywho I shall leave you all with a photo, blast from the past I took this the last time I went to Italy in 2005, it's also when my interest in photography started. I'm being sentimental :)
