Because it has been too damn long since I picked up my camera.

The sunrise on Midwinter Day
To celebrate my birthday this week we decided to take the kidlet to the zoo for the first time on Saturday.
I think he was more enamoured of the fact that we went on a bus, train and ferry to get there, and of the other kids at the zoo, than the animals themselves 😉  But he did like the meerkats and some of the small monkeys and he seemed to love the nocturnal house.
And – so cute – on the way home he turned around and asked “Go zoo again?”. Â Heh.
I took a bunch of photos that I need to spend some time processing, but here are a few:
Kangaroo who thought it was a cat, sleeping in the pathway.
Cheetah
Still loving my new camera.
In the mail yesterday, a copy of the Wild Wood Tarot (which is pretty and awesome, but I find myself a bit disappointed by the quality of the cardstock) and another Green Man.  I think I might be a Druid 😉
It’s the rituals of the everyday that hold us together like glue.
There can be magic in the simple things – making tea, hanging laundry, sweeping the floor. Â You just need to find it.
It was looking slightly post-apocalyptic last night.
The setting sun turned red by a heavy layer of smoke from a bushfire that hung over the city all day.
