Berlin Aquarium, yes more holiday snaps.

Berlin Aquarium is conveniently located at Berlin zoo and like everything in Berlin you really need a day to fully appreciate it. It is not just an aquarium your ticket covers you for the terrarium with all the reptiles. There is also an Entomology section on the top floor which houses all the Insects. Unfortunately I ran out of time to look at it properly but what I did see was an ant colony in the centre of the exhibition. There was perspex pipes funnelling the ants all over the room to a glass box with food in it. This was to show the organisation and scale of how ants interact.

The aquarium was very impressive the amount of detail in the enclosures is amazing. The rain forest exhibition pictured above has all different conditions recreated from different forests from around the world. The sea fish have a huge section and they even have jelly fish which were raised in captivity which I read is incredibly difficult to do.

Kerry Panoramic Landscape

Click to enlarge

The landscape above shows Slea Head and Blasket Islands located on the Dingle Peninsula. This image took 18 hours over 3 weeks sitting on a hill overlooking Ballynahow just to get the sun at the right time. Slea Head is a very tricky place to photograph with the climate changing every twenty minutes creating different lighting effects on the landscape.
The image bellow shows the new Kerry jersey the jersey portrayed is one of the concept designs of the new jersey.
