Chain Valley Bay, NSW, Australia.
I scouted this place out with Google Maps and also used TPE Desktop App to get the Sun alignment in this image. I got the alignment with the Sun and Vales Point Power Station in the background i got the foreground but the execution isn't quite there. As we all face shooting into the Sun is the blown highlights and here getting reflected off the water as well so i was a little disappointed with that.
Another element that was annoying was people walking by on the Jetty while taking a long exposure. To the general public this looks like the photographer is not taking a photo because he is not looking in the view finder, when in fact i was as i was using a cable.
Walking on such a small jetty causes vibrations right down to the tripod and camera so it would be nice to be ask, is it ok to walk by? i'd say sure i'll let you know once i capture this image. I only need 1 or 2 images and then move on. I assume they think i need 100's ;)
I also only take a short time because well their were two other photogs waiting and i didn't want to hog the sunset and jetty. If it was overcast well that would be a different matter as i'd need minutes per shot.
Have you got a similar story or gripe?

Given the name Chain Rock because it once held one end of a heavy chain across the entrance to St. John's Harbour. First used back in 1673 during the Anglo-Dutch war to prevent Dutch pirate ships from entering the harbour and attacking the city. Today it is easily noticed by the white pyramid with a red top mounted on top of it to mark it's location for ships.

Here in blue, you can see 4 twisted chain stitches I worked it in the round to get the pink flower, which I really like. The purple flower is just 5 Lazy Daisy petals of ribbon floss placed over (and between) 5 Lazy Daisy petals of Rainbow Gallery Flair. Then there is the French Knot Lazy Daisy, where the tie-down stitch is a French knot instead of just a straight stitch. Each peach bud is a FKLD done around a padded straight stitch. The turquoise ribbon flower shows 6 petals of FKLD with the knots in the center. The two maroon flowers show FKLD with knots in the center and then with knots on the outer edge.
I'm gonna put another quote which can be interpreted in different ways. But today is a special day, and I have it here in a reference to this particular day. Ask me if you are interested what I meant. Here it is. "It is difficult to free fools from the chains they revere."
Named "Chaining Squares". There are 4 squares per 1 color. And there are 3 colors. So it is "3×4 Squares".

Update: 5D is still sick. Mirror fell down. Extended warranty will cover all the repairs. I might not get it on time for my San Francisco trip at the end of this month. I'm in the market for a replacement. I was too late to respond to an offer for a 5D II for 2Gs. :(
Any idea what group I should add this to? Thanks.

Chained Rock is located at the top of Pine Mountain in Pine Mountain State Resort Park. In this photo, the chain doesn't look very big; but, I can assure you it is huge when you see it up close.
According to legend, some children of Pineville, Kentucky (the town that sits directly beneath Pine Mountain) were afraid that the large rock outcropping that loomed over Pineville would come tumbling down and destroy the town.
Apparently, the parents of these children would tell them there was no need to worry because the big rock was chained to the mountain.
In 1933, a group of local citizens, members of the CCC, the Kiwanians, and the Boy Scouts, formed the “Chained Rock Club” in order to generate added tourist revenue for the new state park.
On June 24, the club obtained a huge chain from an old steam shovel from a Virginia quarry. The chain weighed a 1.5 tons. It had to be cut in half before a four-mule team could pull each portion up the mountain in two trips.
Atop the mountain, the crew welded the chain back together, and stretched it 101 feet from the rock (approx. 200 ft. x 75 ft.) to the cliff with steel rods, two feet long. The holes were drilled by hand.
Chained Rock a link to Kentucky's lore
Visitors love Chained Rock at Pine Mountain, Kentucky's first state park, established in 1924. The way the story goes, area residents told children and visitors that the rock, clearly visible from the town, could not fall because it was chained in place. That, however, was not true.
Then, in 1933, the rock was chained to the nearby cliff in a publicity stunt that attracted widespread media attention. The move created a first-rate tourist attraction.
The steel chain is 101 feet long, spans 75 feet and weighs 1 1/2 tons. Each 4- by 6-inch link weighs 4 1/2 pounds. They are made of steel and are 1 3/8 inches thick.
The chain, acquired from a quarry in Virginia, was moved up the mountain by mules, Kiwanis Club members, local Boy Scouts and the Civilian Conservation Corps.
The half-mile walk from Overlook Point to Chained Rock is a deceptively easy downhill hike. The return climb is steadily uphill, with 300 feet of elevation gain, and may be tough for some.
The overlook offers an eagle's-eye view of Pineville and U.S. 25E, which runs along the old Wilderness Road used by Daniel Boone and other early settlers.
The park, in Bell County, is 16 miles north of Cumberland Gap National Historic Park.
