A rare view of St. John’s Newfoundland from the South Side HIlls. It was an extremely difficult and dangerous hike, but the one of a kind view was worth it. ..................................... / Click here to add me to your watch list. / .....................................

MUCH BETTER VIEWED LARGER / 190 Comments,125 Favourites, 2956 Views / Sydney is great for sunrises, it quite often receives spectacular sunrises as it greets the sunrises that appear from the east. This shot shows the city skyline as seen from North Sydney CBD on the northern shore of Sydney Harbour, in the foreground is Lavender Bay. Technique: HDR , 5 Bracketted images processed with Photomatix Pro with avery slight adjustment (sharpening & contrast) in Capture NX. Equipment: Nikon D300 , Nikon 18-200mm lens No filters or colour adjustment 1) RED SKY AT NIGHT… means that as the sun sets in the west, if it has a red hue or color to it, then the moisture was further west of their location. Thus SAILORS DELIGHT. A beautiful sunset. 2) RED SKY IN MORN…means that as the sunlight from the rising sun passes through moisture, it too will be red. This means that with the rotation of the earth, this will bring this moisture (and possible storm) right on top of them and it is only a few hours away. SO SAILORS TAKE WARN.” / I hope this bit of weather science helps.

Believed to be the oldest man-made navigation in the country that is still navigable, the Fossdyke stretches 11 miles from the River Trent at Torksey Lock and arrives at Brayford Pool. More information on the Fossdyke Canal can be found on the Waterscape website. / Following the Fossdyke and the Witham through the ages Early history / Some historians and archaeologists believe that the Fossdyke Canal was built by the Romans around 120AD to link the River Trent with their city at Lincoln. The earliest definite documentary reference to the Fossdyke Canal is from 1121. 13th century – 16th century / Waterways were responsibility of various landowners and the Church; maintenance inefficient and by 17th century almost impassable (though Lincoln still England’s 4th largest port in 13th century) 18th – 19th century / Fossdyke is leased to various parties – on understanding that trading profits would be used to maintain the waterway 1753 / Act of Parliament leads to straightening and dredging of Witham and Fossdyke 1766 / Grand Sluice and lock built at Boston to protect Witham from tide and flood damage Early 1800s / Major schemes to alleviate problems caused by mud in the tidal section of the Witham between the coast and Boston. Witham was also straightened and deepened between Lincoln and Boston. 1846 / Witham and Fossdyke leased to Great Northern Railway Company End 19th century / Both navigations running at a loss Early 1950s / Regular barge traffic along Witham ceased 1964 / Brayford Pool cleared, 25 wrecked boats removed 1969 / Brayford Trust established 1972 / Commercial carrying along Fossdyke Canal ceased Canon 5D Mk2 / ISO 100 / F16 / 24-105L @ 30mm

BEST VIEWED LARGER Thank you for your views, comments and favouritings / Right Spot – CHECK / No Boats – CHECK / Enough Cloud – CHECK / That Consistency to the Water – CHECK / Lights in varying colours – Check / Reflections on Water – Check / Run for the D300 and the tripod – DEFINITELY Caught a range of shots on this Friday morning reached my vantage point about 5.30am. I saw these reflections and ran for the camera. Sydney Harbour like a mill pond before the many vessels start their morning trips and disturbing it’s surface. The other factor is that look to the water surface that landscape photographers might know it’s like a oily look to the water that lends itself to wonderful reflective surface. It took many shots of Sydney Harbour this morning, if, and you should have seen the sunrise that followed . WAIT ! yes i have photos of that as well.

BEST VIEWED LARGER Yes Sydney Harbour again , but with a view like that do you blame me? I say this is one of the best vantage points for views of Sydney Harbour and the bridge, and not often is the harbour surface so still that it reflects the span of the bridge and lights so well ! If you look close at the bridge you can see the framework mounted on the bridge as they start rigging her for the biggest and best New Years Eve fireworks display. The Sydney New Year’s Eve Midnight Fireworks is one of the most spectacular shows that takes place in the world’s best open theatre – fireworks firing from barges, skyscraper rooftops and across the iconic arch of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. So want something to do on New Years Eve, book a flight its not that far away / Equipment:Nikon D300, Nikon 18-200mm lens,Manfrotto Tripod / Technique:HDR 5 Braketted Exposures, Photomatix 3.2 64 Bit Capture NX
