Cranes

A crane at the old Armory Wharf at Homebush. I think the Navy used these to transfer ammunition to ships docked at the wharf.




I had to stand at this spot for a few minutes in order to catch this Police launch going by - and it was moving. I was lucky to snap it at just the right moment.




I tried getting tricky with the camera settings. I wanted to take a black and white shot of this scene, but the camera does not appear to do black and white.


It certainly does fade-out though.

I like this shot - it evokes this old wharf and the rusting train tracks slowly fading away.... blah blah blah, give me an arts grant so that I can go to the pub and get on the turps.
