I like your place very much. If I were to be outside Australia, that would be one of the places of choice... right about there, with that outlook.

Many terrific photos all around the place in here, thanks to everyone.

(wish i could upload mine a bit bigger!)
I use photobucket.com it's free.

They will also resize your pic but I do that before I upload to photobucket. I usually make the length or width (whichever is greater) to 800px

Haha woot! The Picadilly Circus is a ripper. What setting did you use, was it bulb?

And what lense?

Well, this one was pretty random but I was testing out the super close up thingo & I was sitting on the grass so..... yeah..... grass...
Do you see the blade of grass out of focus^. Next time, try and focus on the blade of grass, but you will have to get down on the ground.

Ahhhh ok, thanks for that. :D

Here's a few more that I took while I was away.

These are my Uncle's diving helmets. Not a great shot of them though.....
