Leonrw (39 months ago | reply)
Contrary to popular belief, in Australia we do not ride around in their pouches, nor keep them as pets.

I really like the rustic colours, and the kangaroos cascading throughout the course.. and of course the capture is great :)

Oh cool!
Haha, ride around in their pouches XD
Aren't kangaroos a bit agressive? I would think twice before going to pick my ball from near one of them.

Absolutely awsome image. I love the Australiana, the tones, and just the really great job you did.
Do they really have a sign saying no access for kangaroo viewing? If so, isn't life funny?

I do love golf courses in Australia. When my kids came to visit me when I was doing some consulting down under, they wanted to see a kangaroo on the first day there. You can almost always find them on the golf courses. Great picture.

Absolutley amazing! What a great scene.
I first thought you cloned the kangaroos with photoshop and then I realized that they are real.

I'm listening to Isao Tomita's arrangement of Debussy's Arabesque No.1 as I wander through your photostream. Its a perfect combination; it draws me to the image, making me wish I could pass into it and experience the moment wholly. Still, doing so vicariously is no small thing. Its an enviable record of an enviable moment. A tip of the hat to you for having posted such beautiful photographs!

fabulous! what a great scene!... and you did a fabulous job of capturing it. almost doesn't look real. we have loads of deer around here.. but too see that many in one place... is a very rare scene indeed.
been a busy weekend.. so i missed this yesterday.

I am definitely a stumbler (that's what the FP of Explore will get you!): loving the 50 kangaroos - is that really real, though? no cloning? Wow!!

Lisa D Curry (39 months ago | reply)
very intriguing indeed.
in fact, i don't think I've ever seen anything like it.
Leonrw (39 months ago | reply)
thanks everyone for all the comments and favourites! This is a completely real scene, it's simply the HDR which makes it look slightly unrealistic.
