Carousel at the Zoo

I'm linking up with My Little Drummer Boys for the Wordless Wednesday meme.

Come and see some awesome pics from around the blogworld!

Blue Cloud

I just popped down to the shops, and was fascinated by this blue cloud that appeared to be hovering in the sky, almost like you could reach out and touch it!

Marie Antoinette

Just watched this DVD and delighted in the colour and decadence. Kirsten Dunst was perfect for this role and looked stunning. I have to share some pics.

Pretty pretty pretty!

And here's a Marie Antoinette inspired video that I first saw over at Bits of Beauty.

Balloons!

I can't resist sharing with you this wonderful display of balloons from the movie Up.

Stunning and triumphant! Read my review of the film at A Choc Top and Me and then go watch it. Adorable.

Crystal Caves

Jonathon's cousin Chelsea came to visit on the weekend, and we took her to the Crystal Caves in the Yanchep National Park.

So awe-inspiring!

The Royal Show

I didn't manage to take any photos at the Royal Show this year, because I forgot to put the memory card in my camera (man!), but here are some favourites from our archives:

Colour and light

And now for something completely different.... When I was young and ambitious, I wanted to be the singer in a band, and one idea I had for a band name was The Julia Set. I love the way it sounds, I think Julia is a pretty name, and I am intrigued by what a julia set is. It is a type of fractal, which mathematically (although the jargon is a bit beyond me, so I'll leave it out), is a repeating pattern. They occur naturally in the environment in flowers, shells, waves and clouds, and in manmade items such as doileys, fireworks, architecture, and staircases, but mostly they are generated in computer graphics programmes. They look amazing as scrapbooking paper.

Here is a selection of julia sets from Google images. I think they are beautiful!

Pinwheels

The Pre-Primary kids made HUGE pinwheels at school. 

Magical

Now, I don't really know how to reference photos from Google images, so forgive me if I've 'stolen' someone's art to use this picture. But I couldn't resist it's beauty. Can you?
