Australia's Ocean Gardens


I got these last week as a surprise, you know when someone knows you collect stamps and remembers to take it off the envelope for you...Amazing colours (as I suspect they are in real life) of the underwater life in two of Australia's UNESCO sites Great Barrier Reef and Ningaloo Coast. These were issued in august of 2013, with two more stamps showing an aerial view of the both sites.
 
Am a tiny bit early but this will be the post for anything you wish theme on Sunday Stamps.
