Photo Of The Week


We at WDWU HQ are positively dazzled by the colours of this stunning capture. This photo - which looks like it comes direct from a scene in The Lion King - was shot by fourth year student Shane Ponraj during his travels across the African continent. When he's not taking utterly bewitching photographs, Shane is studying Mechatronic Engineering at Sydney University. Thank you Shane, we are mesmerised! 

Send in your pictures for Photo of the Week along with your name, age, year, school and a description of what your photo depicts to melissa@bathtubproductions.com.
