Named after one of the most controversial figures in Van Diemen's Land colonial history, the Batman Bridge spans the Tamar between Sidmouth and Hillwood. John Batman (1801-1839) was born in New South Wales and moved to Van Diemen's Land to become a grazier. But he was also a mercenary at heart. On behalf of the colonial government he hunted bushrangers and organised hunting parties to capture and remove indigenous people from their land.
Batman is most famous in Australia for the founding of Melbourne in 1835. Many people are unaware that at the time, Melbourne was an outpost of Launceston (Australia's third oldest city). At this point on the Tamar River at Deviot, Batman's boat Rebecca would have sailed past in 1835 on route to discovering "the place for a village" at the mouth of the Yarra River on Port Phillip Bay.
To be frank, John Batman had what we would probably call today a psychopathic personality. He was one of the most frightful individuals in early 19th century colonial history. He died aged 38 from syphilis.
There are strong calls for this bridge to be renamed.

This photograph is further evidence that it doesn't matter what sort of camera you use if you get the exposure right. This was taken with my compact camera at the time (Panasonic DMC-FS7) with a tiny micro sensor. Since the image was a jpeg very little post-production was required, and those sunset colours are all as captured in camera. I'd be more than happy to have taken this photograph with any of my more expensive cameras.

The Sun rising through the smoke from wildfires from Colorado and here in New Mexico. There is a big cold front blowing through so hopefully it'll blow this away.
