Well funny you should say that Col...we have several dams and there is one quite close to that tree and rock formation and below it too, haven't explored the idea properly yet but ya never know ...and there are a couple of other cool items on the property and nearby that might make good forgrounds too. I will be living there full time as of next weekend so lots of exploring to do still...may become a DSLR/time lapse guy yet, ya never know ...time, give me time...

Although... I am busting to get the AG12 out under dark steady skies, haven't taken an image with her for a while now....
