I have really enjoyed this challenge... There is so much that can be done (evidence the submissions so far) and I believe that we've only scratched the surface. Here is the last of the ones I took last weekend. All I believe would be worth putting in as an entry, although I think the one I've chose is my favourite (but only just).
1. Parliament House above the entrance to the War Memorial.
2. Approaching Brisbane Airport, the Port of Brisbane, The Brisbane River, and cruise liner "Radiance of the Seas" steaming into port over the wing of the aircraft.
3. "Radiance of the Seas", Port of Brisbane and the mouth of the river over the wing.
4. The post card shot from Mt Ainslie above the War Memorial, with Parliament House and the big fountain in Lake Burley Griffin.
5. The upper truss from the 50 inch reflector that was destroyed in the firestorm in 2003, with the dome of the 70 inch in the background. The large object next to the truss appears to be part of the mount and scope assembly.
6. The 50 inch truss and the shell of the Directors House in the background. I really liked this shot and would have used it but didn't compose it well enough... The house should not have been obscured by the truss.
All the shots suffered from poor transparency but very satisfying results just the same.
Cheers
Tony
