A visit to Colchester zoo





Thanks to some bright spells in Essex we managed to go around the zoo without getting wet, quite an achievement! Some shots alongside the topic of "animal portrait".

Sensational Butterflies

If you happen to go to the National History Museum in London, check the Sensational Butterflies House. Make sure you bring a bottle of water and some light clothes as it is extremely hot in there!

Obviously the opposite of concrete, abstract shots are fascinating since it makes you think. One shot taken on board a cruise board in Paris, the other one is the side of a bridge lifted up in front of a building. Even with an explanation it can sometimes still be difficult to figure out what the picture is.
