    The River City

    Our fair city is sometimes referred to as the "River City", for obvious reasons. Here are a few shots I've squeezed in between the rain in the last couple of days. Comments welcome.

    Great sharp shots of good old Brizzie Dave. The poor old Customs House is getting a bit crowded out these days.
    That "street light" on the new/replacement river walk shot is a bit distracting to me, it either needs to be cropped a bit further down to remove the horizontal bit or recropped from the original to leave a bit of sky above the light.
    But all in all a very nice series highlighting the city reaches.

    Yes Graham, Customs House is completely surrounded now ! I agree with you about the lamp post, must clone it out. I actually found it quite difficult to get a decent composition on the walkway, my creative juices were not flowing !

    A lovely set. I like the first one and the customs house. The contrast between the old customs house and the highrise buildings behind is interesting. If life goes according to plan we may visit Brisbane in the (Oz)spring.
