Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Nice notes.
Panoramic capture!
Subtle illumination.
Diffused focusing.
Misty bluish backdrop.
Verdant foreground.
Good perspective & long depth of field...

Cool,Mary!
That must be quite an important facility,huh?
Your photo of it here is certainly an impressive and interesting piece!
I like the way things begin to look hazy as we look towards the sea!
'Good Show',my friend!

Comment from liseworks
Pretty ugly place eh? You have captured the essence of this port wonderfully, we see the green is there, but then we see the bleak black port,,lots of space it takes to send coal to other places, thanks for your explanation of what this is, I knew it was some port but never knew what they were shipping,

Thanks so much, was impressive but very ugly and I would be concerned with all those ships laden with coal going through areas so close to the wonderful Great Barrier Reef - unfortunately economics comes into play more than environment at times.

Comment from Sange
Interesting notes to go along with what we are viewing Mary.
You did a fine job on handling the bright hazy sun. Your focus and POV are both fab as well as a level horizon.
I see improvements on camera techs with the water dragon and this capture.
Good Job!

Thanks Sange, must admit I felt by end of 8 week road trip I was improving - problem is keeping up practice once home again with all the other pressures on time. I really appreciate your support. :) Mary
