G'day  all

Another one from my trip to Western Australia.

At Geraldton  there is a memorial to the sailors who were lost off the WA
coast when the  HMAS Sydney II was sunk in WW2.  It's a particularly
beautiful memorial  and it's focal pint is a silver dome with 645 silver
seagulls - one for each  sailor lost.

The memorial is even more significant now than in the past -  the wreck
of the Sydney (and the Kormoran, the German raider that sank her)  was
located in 2008, about 100 km off the coast at a depth of 2,468  metres.
