Excellent,Steve. I love the reflection of the dam and the lights of Perth as much as the Bow.

Terrific!
I have skipped 5 days of members' photos. I am sorry to have missed many gems in that time but with pressure of work something had to give!

Thanks john the very place i took my first astro photo some 6 years ago still enjoying it when i get the chance. the sad part was i should have shot the water first up got windier as the night went on. Mars was a lovely gold refection on the water.

Thank you a place i have never done a bow before this was not easy to walk out on the stone wall as you can see around the camera. i liked the fact this shot had also every thing that is the dam in shot.

Another great Milky Way capture, positioned perfectly over this reservoir for you. Good to see Mars and Jupiter on here too. Yes the matching curve of the bottom reservoir matches the bow almost perfectly too. Well done

Cheers, Herb
