orchid in the rain
I was staying in the rainforest near Cachi in Costa Rica. It did not stop raining. Nevertheless I took my camera and photographed the beautiful orchid in the rain.

It is amazing what a tourguide in the Costa Rican' rainforest can show you. I wouldn't have been able to see the beautiful yellow caterpillar.

The birds from Cronulla. The Kookaburra is funny to listen to; they sound like they are laughing their heads off. Not sure if you find this funny at 4am in the morning though. Welcome to Australia.
jumping into the water
That photo has been taken in the Loro park in Tenerife. The penguin was about to jump into the water. I love penguins and could not stop watching them.
