Very nice, Matt!

Thanks, Laurie, I was quite happy with the result.

Great looking photo Matt.

Your Sony A99 seems very capable. I think it would give the Nikon D800 and Canon 5D MkIII a good challenge.

Beautiful image Matt! Detail is great!

Thanks, Ross, Carlos. Yes, all these are fine cameras very much in the same ballpark.

Nice result Matt

Hey, I used to live in Mt Campbell Estate in Googong (2004 - 2006), where are you? Even though it was not that far from Canberra, the skies were great out there.
