The Wild Rhino’s are Here…

by on Feb.28, 2014, under Life, Photography

A huge herd of wildly colourful rhino sculptures have charged into town to create a spectacular sculpture trail through the streets, parks and public spaces of Sydney, Dubbo and surrounds during February to April 2014 to help raise awareness of the critical plight facing rhinos through poaching and habitat loss.

I joined some friends from Google Plus for a Drink & Click following a trail of Rhino’s through the streets of Sydney – followed by drinks, dinner and lots of great conversation in The Rocks.

I was figuring straight on shots of Rhino’s weren’t going to cut it and as I had this Glass Orb (that Ana made me get :)) I planned to use it for every shot for some Rhino funkiness…

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger – so click any of the images below to see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer.
