What a great shot is this one! You could sell posters of this to the tourists and make a killing. Great work again Gerry. Beautiful image, immaculate technique, and....seriously.....it even looks great in black and white.

Very well deserved, I also loved his panoramic shot. (Last image on his post). It too was stunning and sellable to any Sydney loving person!

If I had the room I too would buy a large print. Superb.
