Sometimes
it's so wonderful to get away; when the opportunity strikes to leave
the busyness and constant rush of our lives to find something that
slows down our pace. Last month a friend and I did just that. We
packed our cameras, film and headed for the city. It had been raining
all week so we were fortunate enough that the weather was just right
and no rain. This trip was both lovely and sad. It was my first
trip to the zoo and I was in awe at all the beautiful creatures both
big and small. At the start of our little expedition we saw so much
greenery, large enclosures and the animals seemed to be enjoying
their stay there. As we made our way trough the park, snapping away
photos left and right. We came across larger animals confined to
these small spaces. I am sure that they are treated very well and
probably were born into the this environment but I guess naturally my
heart just felt sad for them. As I looked through the glass and over
the wire fences at the bears, I daydreamed about the ocean, the
forest and how large those environments are in comparison to here and
I wondered if they too were daydreaming.
(Here
are some photos from our trip, I have yet to develop the film but
will share as soon as am able to)
