Madagascar! Sunset


I snapped this photo leaving work the other day. Having an iphone really makes taking more pictures an easy task. Instagram is a great way to share photos more easily as well.

Aquarium Interactions




One of my favorite things about the Ocean Voyager tank at Georgia Aquarium (besides the whale sharks, mantas, and tons of other beautiful creatures) is the sheer size of it. The HUGE viewing window allows visitors to almost interact with the fish swimming by. They can get eye to eye with sharks and rays. It not only gives you a sense of scale of these amazing creatures but I get to watch faces light up when a huge manta comes gliding by. This is where conservation and appreciation of nature starts.

I could sit in front of this window all day. There was also a family who was in there for a very long time. The 2 boys had one of the fish guides in hand and followed sharks and rays back and forth across the window the entire time I was there. Another boy was always spread his hands wide and watched as the fish swam past his outstretched arms.
