Here’s another amazing looking creature I saw at the aquarium. It’s actually quite small, about 3 inches. Have any of my Australian blog friends ever seen one of these in the wild? I’m celebrating four years of my blog! Thanks to everyone who follows, likes and comments on my images. Your continued support is an inspiration to me. I am soon going to have a few sites where people can purchase my images – finally, some would say. lol. 🙂 Thanks friends!

I just spent two days in Toronto. I got to see a few attractions and walked all over taking shots. Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada that just opened, is amazing, and I took many images, but it’s still kinda sad, like a zoo. These two strange beauties are Pacific Sea Nettles.
