Suspension bridge cables ... William H. Natcher Bridge spanning the Ohio river between Indiana and Kentucky .

The Wellington Cable Car runs from Lambton Quay (which is in the heart of Wellington's CBD) up to the suburb of Kelburn where - as you can see - there are spectacular views of central Wellington.

When viewed in Large format, you might make out a freighter approaching the Wellington wharves, an Inter-Island ferry outward bound for Picton, and an A320 plane on "finals" for Wellington Airport that is just above the "black" office block and the more distant bush-covered Miramar Peninsula...!!! (However, don't strain your eyes; the picture quality of things on or above the harbour isn't the best...!!!).

Our visitors from Vancouver Island were amazed by both the ride and the view...!

The cable car flies over the port ... I'm not very good with heights and missed the spectacular views that could be seen from such a vantage point ...

A close-up of my current sweater in progress. I love the cables, and purple is my favorite color.

Took and edited this back in Feb. Not sure why I didn't upload it then, as I quite like it.

Probably using the sweet 35 optic and extension tubes, going by the other photo I uploaded that day.

Digital composition. The cosplay just looked so out of place on the dealer's room floor that I found an interesting industrial/apocalyptic background and placed him within that setting. The drop shadow gave me some issues but I think it turned out quite well and realistic. I was going to add in a glowing eye on his right side but that just wasn't working all that well so I left it alone.

Robins are so common where I live that I normally don't bother to photograph them. But, the thrush we call a robin doesn't exist where some of my friends live! So, here you go -- a North American robin!
