The sunset over Balmain, in Sydney.

Photographed from the Barangaroo Reserve.

So I often travel into the city after work to take photographs, mostly around the harbour. The Barangaroo Reserve (near the Crown Casino Tower) provides views looking west across Darling Harbour towards Balmain. This is one of the views.

And, of-course, not too far away at Barangaroo it is cafe central with my choice being the cool 'Butchers Block' cafe. Great for flat white coffees after watching the sun set over Balmain.
