Lots of photos today, so I am dividing them into two chunks. To work and from work.
It was a crispy old morning in Sydney - it was 3 degrees when I left home, and I thought my ears were going to snap off before I was halfway into town. I don't know how Tony Abbott has made it through so many Canberra winters on his bike and kept his flappers attached to his head.
Look at that water - beautiful. And undoubtedly bloody cold.
I've used a bit of zoom to capture the top section of the Harbour bridge in the distance - see that curved bit slightly left of middle?
First there was one rower....
....then there was a swarm. I hope they were wearing wetsuits.
They went this way and that, some crews racing against others, other solitary crews doing stroke improvement exercises.
A shot with 2/3 sky...
...and one with 2/3 water. I prefer the water shot, particularly as the water gets so dark as it gets closer to you.
A crew heading home.
The last of the moon over a bunch of boats.
Stopping to take all these snaps just about killed me. I had to take a glove off each time to work the camera, and the lack of motion before I was properly warmed up risked muscle seizures in the legs. But I reckon it was worth it.
