Landscape Photography Competition Winners
Young British photographers, Matt and Will Burrard-Lucas run several photography competitions every year. Here are the winners from their recently judged Landscape competition.
Lean on Me included in You’re not Alone Gallery
I just saw that my photograph of a pair of rainbow lorikeets called "Lean on Me" has been included in this Flickr Gallery curated by George Goodnight. George writes "A hug is worth a thousand words. A friend is worth more." All these photos show us the power of friendship and love. Hope you love them too.

Visited by a Juvenile Blue-faced Honeyeater
I see these birds often in my garden but they are so wary of me that I don't even come close to pointing my camera lense at them. Today, this juvenile came down and was perched on our pool fence with a couple of noisy miners.
