By 3pm, when I took this photo, I'd already photographed the skyline from Kenneth Hahn Recreation area, and walked around the canals of Venice, plus shot some vistas from the 70th floor of the Wilshire Grand (the second building from the left in this picture.)
One of my "destinations" were the bridges over the 110. I specifically wanted to get shots of the buildings with the freeway and clouds in the sky.
Of course by the time I got here, the clouds were almost gone, and ol' Mr. Sol decides to get center stage in my photo. I tried as much as I could to hide him with a palm tree.
View from the Freeway showing how built up Melbourne is. I have removed one building from the shot to get a better view. A cloudy weekend coming up - our autumnal days are now well turned towards the grey and cool.
A bit of PS magic, and with the sky replacement as well. For Definitely Dreaming week 19: Building

Viajando a la Carretera Austral por dos semanas. Nos vemos amigos.!/Travelling to the Austral Road in Chilean Patagonia for two weeks. See you friends!!
*******************************
Uno de los mayores atractivos de la Patagonia chilena, es la Carretera Austral. Esta larga carretera que nació como un sendero de colonización a fines del siglo XX, actualmente es una ruta turística de un creciente interés para viajeros y aventureros de todo el mundo que quieran recorrer la salvaje belleza patagónica. Se ha consolidado como destino por ser una de las mejores 10 rutas escénicas del mundo para viajar ya sea en auto, motocicleta o en bicicleta.
La Carretera Austral o Ruta CH-7, nace en la ciudad de Puerto Montt, recorriendo mas de 1.240 kilómetros, en su trayecto cruza varias veces la cordillera de los Andes, junto con bordear el litoral y los fiordos de la Patagonia Occidental, para luego internarse en los bosques australes siempre verdes, acercándose a numerosos glaciares, grandes lagos y los ventisqueros de los Campos de Hielo Norte para finalizar en Villa O’Higgins, a unos cuantos kilómetros del Campo de Hielo Sur.
Su tramo inicial va de Puerto Montt hasta Chaiten un pequeño poblado conocido por la erupcion del volcan Chaitén en 2008 por esta razon este tramo estuvo cortado por un par de años. Actualmente se encuentra en proceso de pavimentacion hasta el poblado de Hornopiren. Por años el segmento entre Hornopiren y Chaitén debia ser realizado mediante el uso de ferrys (conocidos en Chile como transbordadores) pero un proyecto del gobierno Chileno pretende dar continuidad a la carretera con un camino costero que estaria listo para el 2018, que debera superar diversas dificultades geograficas y constructivas entre otros el cruce de cuatro fiordos (Quintupeu, Cahuelmo, Leftepu y Fiordo Largo) hasta llegar a Caleta Gonzalo cruzando el Parque Nacional Hornopiren y el Parque Pumalin.

The first section start from Puerto Montt to Chaitén an small town known for the eruption of Chaitén volcano in 2008 reason why this section was cut for a couple of years. Currently it is paving process till to the town of Hornopiren . For years the segment between Hornopiren and Chaiten had to be carried out by using ferries ( known in Chile as Transbordadores ) but a project of the Chilean government intends to follow up with a coastal road between Hornopiren and Gonzalo Cove that would be ready for 2018 which must overcome huge geographical and construction difficulties among as crossing four fjords ( Quintupeu Cahuelmo Leftepu and Long Fjord ) two parks Hornopiren National Park and Pumalin.
Early morning in the Adelaide hills near a water trough.
Looking towards Callington with the South Eastern freeway in the background .
About 80 min before sunrise
The Road to Mt Kosciuszko has some stunning views. It's incredible to think humans have built path ways in the most hidden areas in the world. I can only imagine how amazing it must feel to be the first to adventure into an area where no one has been before.
Looking west down the Icefields Parkway toward Mt Athabasca, Hilda Peak and Boundary Peak, moonlight illuminates freshly snow covered peaks like beacons.
