Jee, where do you work, centre point tower...? ;)

Those shots are very sharp and detailed, and you caught some really good light. I like!

Cheers
Steffen.

Nice pictures.....

Obviously from the air, taken of my home town - Brissy.....

First pic is from above the Valley? looking south..... and is my favorite.

#2 seems disjointed to me with its narrow focus on those buildings at the bottom.....

#3 isn't showing (Processing Image graphic).

The first is fabulous, I haven't seen a post card that looked this good. Where is it shot from? The third image doesn't open for me either.

Steve, not sure how to improve the first one, I like it as is.

Cheers,

Thanks for the comments.

This winter has been bizarre as far as the weather goes. Lots of very strong westerly winds which has meant no flying on 2 out of 3 days but when it has been flyable the visibility has been absolutely spectacular. The last 2 mornings we have been able to see Double Island Point from Brisbane - a distance of over 200 km. Until yesterday I hadn't seen visibility like that in 20+ years of flying balloons around Brisbane.

For a moment I thought you must work in a really tall building. Pretty cool job you've got flying balloons. :)

I'd love to say I wasn't this silly.... But I thought exactly the same thing. :oops:

Great pics Steve. Is that the Glasshouse Mountains in the distance? If so, it sure must have been a clear day! :shock:

Very tall building - about 1500 feet with a transparent section between floors 3 and 99 :lol:

The mountains in the distance are to the south, Barney, Lindsay and Flinders Peak.

As for the job.... it beats working :wink:
