The Art of Nature

At work, we are currently running a photographic competition open to all residents in South Australia. The photos must have been taken in South Australia, and the top 12 photos will be used in a calendar. Unfortunately, employees of our department (Department for Environment and Heritage) are not allowed to enter the main competition, but there is an employees competition to provide the photo for the front cover of the calendar. I have entered a few of my photos, some of which have appeared previously in my blog and some which haven't. The winners will be decided by public voting, and voting is open to any Australian resident. This is the link to the competition website and here are the photos I entered. Coorong National Park Sturt's Desert Pea Innes National Park Rainbow Lorikeet Eastern Spinebill Koala Rainbow Lorikeets Dalhousie Homestead Australian Pelicans Yellow-footed Rock Wallaby Tawny Frogmouths

    I think I like the Eastern Spinebill the most, or maybe the Rainbow Loriketes, or maybe the homestead , or maybe ... Hmmm, too hard to chose just one. Good luck.

    For me, either the Rainbow Lorikeets (your header photo) or the Frogmouths. All of them are fabulous though Tony. Good luck, let us know how you get on. By the way I didn't know you'd moved jobs???

    Hi wilma, and Kelly. Thanks for your comments guys - it was fun going through all of my photos trying to find a few to enter.

    Hi Jen, I thought you knew I changed jobs three years ago. The Frogmouths were great, and I ended up with about 70 or so photos.....

    I think you may have given the 'judges' a headache! Great series & difficult to choose, however I do have a soft spot for the Koala & Rainbow Lorikeet. Good luck. FAB.
