Thanks Brian, I'm just sad that I wasn't in a position to capture it a few minutes before, the front was almost overhead in that shot, the wind was ferocious for a few minutes. I saw the gull and thought hope he's not too blurred ;-) On 15 August 2010 22:18, David J Brooks <[email protected]> wrote: > Great job.

Thanks Dave, it was pretty dramatic, about a 10 degree drop in minutes with pelting rain after a nice calm 21 decrees C moments before, extraordinary.

You were in a much more advantageous possie Thanks Derby, it was just so quick, I don't know what the wind was gusting at, I was just lucky to be in the area.

Thanks Micheal, you should trust your first instincts, they are grain silos, in context it makes sense though I can appreciate your reasoning, if you check the google map link following you can see that they belong to an industrial port on the opposite side of the bridge: http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=&sll=-33.86981,151.182926&sspn=0.016997,0.026157&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=&ll=-33.86981,151.182926&spn=0.016997,0.026157&t=h&z=16 The shot was taken from the park at the end of Glebe Point Rd, the horizontal FOV is 172.52° according to the stitching package.
