Congrats Blister - a standout pic, reminiscent of a very famous pic by the late great Peter Dombrovskis.

I must say, it's not often you see an amateur out-Dombrovskis Peter Dombrovskis, but that's what's happened this month. In don't think I've ever seen a better shot of Oberon or the WArthurs. Superb.

Really was a nice photo.

Ok thanks, I just happen to know someone by those initials who was in the WA that month who is also a remarkable photographer. Thought you may have been him. I think he is in the same department as you.......

Sounds like my next to next door neighbour who has those initials. He is a remarkable photographer & he does get around, not just Tassie either.

Absolutely stunning photo BTW!
