This is a fantastic shot John, the "V" compostion of the buildings and the two people, is counter-balanced by the perfectly vertical book - these elements come together brilliantly, well done, this gets a huge vote from me!

May I be so lucky to one day be refered to as a "grockle"!
Well shot. The odd angle really makes this one, a trick I just can't seem to master personally. You have carried it marvelously here.

Lonely Planet is the best guide book :>) We don't have any problem with tourists coming to Australia...look for the new advert coming to a Telly near you...it's causing controversy or the question " Where the bloody hell are you ? "

Good POV John !!
