Contemplating life! Happy Bench Monday
Today my two shots are taken in Redcliffe on the north side of Brisbane.
This image is in the suburb of Woody Point and the Ferris Wheel in the next shot is about a kilometre to the south (right) on the shoreline at Clontarf. The view looks out into what is essentially Bramble Bay which is a subset of the much larger Moreton Bay off South East Queensland.
National Geographic hailed this south-west view as an outstanding sunset scene several years ago. But only in summer when the sun is in the Southern Hemisphere sky.
In the distance is the D'Aigular Range which rings Brisbane's north on its western side while the bridge is the Ted Smout Memorial Bridge across the 2.7 kilometres wide estuary of the Pine River. On the far side of the bridge one enters Brisbane proper. The bridge is paralleled on the western side by the older Houghton Highway bridge.
If you consult google earth, all that may be much clearer!
