Thanks, Rob. My school experience was much the same as yours, I suspect. I learned that there were 5 Macquarie Towns but I had no idea where they were or how relevant they were. It was only after I moved out to Castlereagh that I got a bit interested in finding out more.

The light and composition all work to make each picture so interesting. I didn't think I'd be able to pick a favorite of the bunch, but then I saw your Regatta picture. Wow! Beautiful.Make sure you show this collection to folks in the area. You've put together a nice piece of history which I'm sure would make for a great exhibit about town or a book. Beautiful, beautiful work. One thing though: I didn't get the original post to this. You posted this today, right? or No? Cheers, Christine Don't know why you didn't see the original post. I sent it just after 10PM Thursday (Sydney time) and it came into my mailbox a minute or so later. The original post is also in the archives. A mystery. The Regatta picture took a bit of work. I wanted to shoot late in the day to get the late sun on the face of the bridge. Unfortunately, when I got to the site I realised that the sun was setting too far north (if I'd looked at The Photographer's Ephemeris, I would have known this beforehand). So, Plan B was to combine two images, one exposed for the sky and the other exposed for the bridge. Thankfully I had my tripod with me Thanks for the kind words.
