g'day folks - thanks v.much for your comments. I do enjoy this station - often the most inspiring part of my work day ;-(

I have been shooting heaps with this lens over the past few weeks - methinks it's the best way to become familiar with it/any new lens? - i joked to a friend today that i aspire to see the world thru each of my lenses - practice, mother, practice (PMP)

Cheers, adrian

You seem to be surgically attached to that lens :-)

The fish suits the roof perfectly, and the commuter sets the scene nicely. Good one!

that lens was made for this shot Adrian, and you have bought them together perfectly, it's facinating, so much detail to take in.

Wow, I bet this looks stunning at full size. The detail and range is terrific! Haven't been to Paddington for a while, but I always remember it as a smoky place cos of the diesels. Looks much better now! Alistair

the yellow is such an integrating color throughout the image.
That lens is amazing.

I don't think I will ever see a place quite like this in my lifetime. I always have lived it rural areas or in a city now that doesn't have mass transport quite on that scale! We finally did get a lite-rail which is really pleasant to ride on. That is one huge terminal and you really show it off nicely.

Amazing depth to this picture, Adrian! The pock marks on the handrail are sharp aw well as the arched doors in tbe distance. Everything seems so clear and detailed - it is hard to see where the "stretch" the lense is giving comes in. Really like it a lot, it gives a whole new dimension to a picture. Just amazing - brent

see my response in "mind the gap" same applies ;-) The red satchel or bag he is carrying is the kicker tying it together colorwise
Nicely done

This is nice. Makes me want to have another go with that lens. We must have that next get together soon, all of us.
