This bee was resting after being hit by a rainstorm. Full of pollen she sat on the edge of this dandelion
A creek flowing through the jungle near Cape Tribulation in the north-west of Queensland
Some shots from the celebration of World Animal Day at the children’s farm from last Sunday. Really lovely to walk around and seeing all the children and parents enjoy all the animals and the activities which were organized.
A silkie at the childrens farm, beautiful species. This one endured the rain like nothing was happening 🙂
In the front garden these Papavers are doing great, though the rain made them close the leaves.
While staying in the rain forest, one can expect to have rain right? 🙂
So when we were in Cape Tribulation in the upper part of Queensland, we experienced quite a bit of showers. Very impressive to see it happen.
And with a roof over our heads, we had nothing to complain about either lol
A double rainbow was visible this week, while it was still raining.. you can see the raindrops falling down, especially in the top right corner
Yesterday my parents and i visited the city of Deventer. It’s a lovely old Hanze city with lots of small narrow streets with nice and peculiar shops. As there will be a festival next week which focuses on height. It’s called Deventer on Stilts and I’m pretty sure thats why these umbrellas are hanging all over the city. And with the rainy weather of yesterday the people ‘on ground level’ also used the umbrellas. Nice complementary work by these supporting actors 😉
Yesterday after the storm clouds it indeed turned into lightning later on. Later than expected the thunder and lightning kept me busy until late night. I was surprised to see that I’d catched the lightning on the camera. This is one of the photos from last night
to create amazing art! Nature can be beautiful

Sometimes the world seems upside down, if you live with your head in the clouds.. And sometimes you want to create something special out of the ordinairy.. this is a picture i took at Kings Canyon in Australia, with clouds reflected in a little pool of water after the rain. Yesterday i played a bit with it, this is the result
When we visited Uluru (Ayers Rock) in Australia, we were hoping to see a spectacular sunrise.. instead we were treated with something even more rare and beautiful: rain!
This is a picture just before it started raining.. clouds gathering over the sacred Aboriginal hill.. really amazing place!
It rained quite a lot on monday here. These clock-like flowers were soaked after the rain.. thought it deserved a picture!
