Gizmo is a barking owl who lives at the Lone Pine Sanctuary in Brisbane. Originally, the Sanctuary staff thought that Giz was a ‘he’, but apparently he’s a ‘she’.

© Claire McAdams / ALL RIGHTS RESERVED For less expensive prints of this shot click here i LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this picture. I am STUNNED that this came out of MY camera and I am SOOO happy with it. I really hope it does well. This is a style that I have tried a couple times and failed miserably but now that I found these waterfalls I finally have a good enough subject to start out with and work with. My freind had this dress she got for like 15 dollars at a sale and was willing to go out into nature with and I just loved how it flowed. I had my camera on a tripod and used a relatively longer shutter speed which gave the whole picture a softness to it. This was taken at about 9:30 am on a cloudy morning, the sun was behind me but when she looked up the diffused sunlight caught her face very well and made her glow.
I photographed this pelican at Healesville Sanctuary, a beautiful 31-hectare zoo which exhibits only Australian species in a natural bushland setting.
A rushing creek and a few fallen leaves taking a brief respite from thier rapid trip downriver via breeze and rushing water. The rocks offer a brief sacntuary before they are swept away into the coming winter.

From the bitter north-east wind and the brutal crashing waves … and that bloody woman with the camera again :)
A journey, place to go, inside my heart, when I need to listen to myself. Colorex concentrated watercolor on Arches paper.
Away beyond the blue / One star belongs to you / And every breathe I take / I’m closer to that place / Yeah, baby / I’m gonna meet you there / On the outskirts of the sky / Yeah, baby / And we will fly / Away beyond the blue / One star belongs to you / This life is but a dream / Go gently down the stream… lyrics by Beth Nielsen Chapman

Sanctuary – Middle English, from Old French sainctuarie, from Late Latin s?nctu?rium, from Latin s?nctus, sacred, sanctify. Sacred place, especially the most sacred part of a sacred place. In ancient times and in the Middle Ages, a sanctuary served as asylum, a place of refuge for persons fleeing from violence or from the penalties of the law. To injure a person in sanctuary or to remove him from it forcibly was considered sacrilege. In Egypt the temples of Osiris and Amon offered the right of sanctuary. Under the Greeks all temples enjoyed this privilege, and certain ones, like the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, were known throughout the Mediterranean world as a haven for fugitives. In Rome fugitive slaves often sought sanctuary. Christian churches were given the right of sanctuary by Constantine I. Abuses of sanctuary, tending to encourage crime, led to its curtailment and abolition. Modern penal codes no longer recognize the right of sanctuary.
