I took this photo today in Cairns Botanical garden..love the vibrant green!

I love this fun statue on the Esplanade leading down to the Lagoon in Cairns, Qld. Its near a childrens playpark and its simple but colourful.

It's so laid back in New Zealand the trees are too! This was a photo I took in The Coramandel when we spent 4 months travelling around NZ.
