Windswept tones

When you feel like you're out there on your own, know there is someone watching over you, When out at sea, feels love can let go
Oh sailor, we will blow the wind right

Damn I wish I could write like that 🙂 anway, they are not my words, but the part thereof the lyrics to a 2013 song by Mr Little Jeans, how cool is that band name by the way! 🙂 the song name is "Oh Sailor"

Those words to seemed to fit the image and as such here I find myself.

View this baby in full resolution goodness and feel the wave of clouds as the city envelopes the last of the warm sunlight rays.

Spoiled

view large to see the pain only those who do not live in the blues point tower have to suffer
I wonder if anyone asked…"so whats this highrise gonna look like? will it spoil the view of anything in the harbour?……………..like the operahouse or bridge?" 🙂

I will welcome the day that this piece of building (Blues Point Tower) is gutted and filled explosive ready to be brought back down to the earth, then I will come back here take a much much nicer picture 😉

That is unless someone who lives there offers me a spot for New Years Eve 2015 😉 then I might consider retracting my opinion. 😉

In the meantime, when I get a bit more time and my photochop sklills are a bit better, I am gonna clone that building out and see what the view would really look like.

It will also be very interesting to see the view in a few years when the Barangaroo site is complete.

This was the last of only a couple of sneaky shots i managed to fit in before dinner, I would have loved to get a few more images as the blue hour really developed, however reality and kids bath time takes priority 🙂

Pretty easy going image, 6 landscape orientation images stitched together, its one of the few times I have used the LEE 0.6 graduated filter, normally I opt for the stronger 0.9 filter.
