Thank you so much Miroslava for featuring Smoko in your group Australia in Pictures. I truly appreciate your support.

Denise! Koalas are my favorite animal. I have always been drawn to them. How fabulous to be able to photograph them. His morning tea will not perk him up, eucalyptus is more like a "Sleepy Time Tea!" You captured that look perfectly. After looking at your photography on your front page, I just love the artistry of your work. The composition, perspective, and your TITLES! Well done! This is a fave/like for me!! Janet💕

Thank you so much Janet...One of my favourite books when growing up was "Blinky Bill" who was a very naughty Koala who got up to all sorts of mischief (that you wished you could do and get away with).
