A little while ago I did a photo essay on the pollution at Lime Kiln Bay Wetlands

which is a few blocks away from my house. 

I used the photo essay to compare what the Wetlands are supposed to be, and what they actually are.

The photos of pollution were contrasted to the pictures of the wildlife that inhabited the Wetlands. 
The ducks were alot more willing than I was, these photos were taken on a freezing cold winters morning complete with a heavy layer of fog. 

Ironically, the Clean Up Australia Day volunteers were the ones who made the most mess, 

With their bags of rubbish thrown in bushes and scattered around the waters edge.

a statue in the botanical gardens, 

this poor statue seems to have lost his arm, partially.

or maybe it was intentional.

his eye was also missing.

hmmm....

another photo from the botanical gardens.

i've also decided that I 110% hate being sick.

but I am, thanks to my lovely sister who decided to share her germs.

the bamboo trees at the botanical gardens were totally graffitied,

engraved with thousands of peoples names.

blogger likes to rotate my photos >.>
