This is my favourite photograph I took in 2011.
Wishing everyone all the best for 2012. Cheers. :)

Ring-tailed Lemur, Taronga Western Plains Zoo, Dubbo, New South Wales, Australia
One of the more fascinating species at the Taronga Western Plains Zoo at Dubbo, New South Wales, Australia is the Ring-tailed Lemur.
As a photographer, it’s quite easy to get caught up spending time watching their behaviour as they climb trees, climb into their food box, and catch the warmth of the sun.

Brilliant photo Daz! Looks like he’s about to launch into full karate attack! And why do I always think of Mr Bean when I look at Lemurs????
Wishing you a year full of fun and adventure in 2012! :)
Darren Stones:
Thanks Paula. Lovable critters they are, just like Mr Bean.
Plans are afoot for some fishing trips in 2012. :)
Trust 2012 is a good one for you. All the best.

A ham indeed, Odille. Too funny … just one of those moments you capture that brings back great memories of travelling in Australia. We had a ball at the Dubbo Zoo … highly recommend.
