This probably took a lot of effort but it works quite well as an advertisement for this auto salvage yard...
I saw the sunset might look good so I quickly grabbed my camera and headed to a bridge at this park next to some power lines. The clouds cleared out and it didn't get to be as good as I thought but it was still pretty nice. I really like how everything is silhouetted against the orange sunset and a nice relfextion in the river. At first I was going to remove the power lines in Photoshop but then I thought this gave it a nice urban look, since this WAS taken in a park in the middle of a bunch of houses in the suburbs.

Back to a few rural shots from northern Tasmania today. This stand of trees is from a timber plantation. That's why they are so closely packed together to encourage straight upward growth. Being on a hillside actually maximises the amount of sunlight that falls on the trees each day - following the same principle adopted by most vineyards.
