The highlight of the Ferry Hop has to be Cockatoo Island it's a fantastic location which I didn't even know existed. Keith and I enjoyed it so much we missed the scheduled ferry back, so we could explore a bit more.

Here are a few of the shots from my exploration, haven't been shooting much recently so brutal CC is very welcome.

Craig - you're setting a style that is really your own and it's evident in your changing eye/viewpoint! Great stuff.
My favourite out of these images would be the 3rd one, it has me puzzled as I'm not sure what it is but the lines and symmetry are appealing. The last one is intriguing too, why was there a mannequin on cockatoo island? If it was bird manequin (then it'd be a birdequinn wouldn't it?? hehe) then I'd understand it! :)

Great work champ!

Love all but the last. The first two look like some dacayed old church and I love the intricate details in the third. The last one though just doesn't hold my interest.

I agree. Great stuff, though I thought you missing the ferry was an accident rather than a planned escape attempt :)

FYI THe third is the faceplate of a (very large) lathe.
My guess on the last is that it is an artwork. Bienalle (modern art comp) is there at the moment.

Craig number three is a real attention grabber, and that to me indicates a great shot :D
