I had a nice walk this afternoon with Brian Walters and even managed to take a 
few photos.  We didn't even get lost... much.  I have a handful of pics to put 
up but they can wait as I have an early start tomorrow and some will need 
tweaking in Photoshop after I get home.

Here are a couple that I took after our harbour dinner cruise ended.  We were 
waiting for the train from Circular Quay back to our accommodation and I 
realised that the view from our seat was a bit of a new perspective on a famous 
landmark.

After I get home I'd like to see if I can get a little detail in the foreground 
figures.

The second photo was simply me having an idea when the announcement said that 
the next train was not stopping at this station.  I stopped down to f/22 and 
panned as one of the doors went past.  The resulting exposure was 1.5 seconds.

Technology is really letting us down on this trip.

* Janet's cellphone is not connecting to the Australian network.  Mine is doing 
great and we're both on the same provider.
* My FA24 lens is not communicating properly with the body so I have to use it 
in manual mode with the green button trick.
* My 43mm lens doesn't seem to like auto-focusing at infinity.  Not sure if 
it's the body or the lens at this stage.

Cheers,
Dave
