It's got to be #2 here as well.

This image is classic Canberra. The lighting is spot on, the reflections are glassy, it's sharp and the mountain is iconic.

You've captured what I've been seeing in my head for a couple of years!

You utter, utter, utter bastard. WIsh I could achieve something as good as this. The quality of your work including and post the South America trip has leapt forward significantly. #2 by a nose, but both are very good.

Stephen,

wow, that is Canberra :D :D

Very relaxing, colours are great, I love them both. The only thing I would do is clone out the cranes in the skyline in the 1st one.

wonderful photos, thanks for sharing,

André

if no1 was a little higher so the balloons basket was in the sky i would have picked that one as it is a little closer but No2 is my pic of these great images.

Thats is really nice to hear Peter. I can only "blame" this forum for this :shock: (constantly insipres new ideas and encourages frequent practice)

Thanks everyone else for the good feedback on these shots.
