Went up to Sydney for a couple of days. Here's a couple of snaps I converted to B&W.

Shakey - that 2nd image of the bridge with the brooding cloud behind and the B&W treatment is superb. Easily see this in one of those expensive galleries in The Rocks! Well done! The other two are good but the 2nd image really stands out here.

Addit: I'd nearly be inclined to approach bridgeclimb and see if they'd be interested in purchasing that image, remember when/if you do it how many millions of dollars they have made since the introduction of the concept? :lol: :wink:

Well, for me the perspective & lines of the first make it the stand out image here. Taken from the south Pylon I'm guessing, but you must have been using a fair zoom yet the image is still nice & sharp - well done.

Thanks for the comments guys. Stubbsy..this is from the south east pylon (I think it's the only one with public access)..it was shot at 70 mm (18 - 70 kit lens). Cropped to vertical.

Geoff...doubt that the snap is gallery material but I might stick it in the photo section at the local ag show in Feb. You never know..I won $5 the year before last :D
