I like the wide angle on this one a lot. I guess the 10-22 will be in good hands with you. :D

Maybe it's cause its a really gray gloomy day, but this set really makes me wanna come visit. I mean, i always really want to visit down under, but for some reason, this morning, that beach is calling to me.
That last long image looks perfect for a website border:

Brisbane in the background of the wide one, right? Just found out this week that one of the undergrads that works in my lab spent her last summer there. Maybe she crossed paths with you :D
She mentioned one of her favorite things was that you could go climibing right in the city, so I showed her those shots you took a few days ago at night. Keep up the good work :thumb

I like the surfie ones and this one. What's great is how you show us where you live. I have a feeling I know a bit about Melbourne and adjoins because of you.

Is that your polite way of correcting me? :doh

No, no, not at all. I'm the one who got it wrong, you're right. :uhoh
Sorry about that gustacious, apparently your photos of Brisbane make me feel like I'm in Melbourne.

Waxy !! Comparing Bris/gold coast area to melbourne is the same as the comparing the caribbean to new york. They are worlds apart. One is a warm fun soaked tourist mecca & the other is in a perm state of purgatory where everyone wears black overcoats & drives audi's.
Im letting you off for the 2nd time :thumb

:hidewhoa! I was actually right about something! cool :D
Surfers paradise, right. Been meaning to ask this ... is that where Suicides and the Boneyard are? or am I on the wrong coast this time? I've watched Endless Summer 1 and 2 so many times, you'd think I'd know by now. :rolleyes
