Very nice shot, Roberta! I am anxiously waiting for the hummingbirds’ return. I heard from folks in the southern states that they saw them already, a bit early than usual. I am heading to Shreveport for a quick trip next week for a big airshow, never been to your state before. I wish I had time to see the swamps with cypress trees, but maybe winter isn’t really a good time to see them.

Thanks Douglas ! I hope your have a great time at the airshow. Can't wait to see your shots.
Actually Cado Lake ( around the Shreveport/Texas border) is great for the cypress trees in the fall ( late Oct /early Nov). It is on my bucket list one of these days hopefully.
I have not seen any of the hummingbirds yet. They should be here by now. Hopefully will show up soon. I am missing them

Thank you Joshua for your stunning images.
Your Sidney opera house image seems to have been shot from a rather unique pony of view.
I had no seen this perspective before.
Congratulations.

Thank you very much, K-H.! There is a park located on the nearby small hill, which I thought would offer a different perspective. I would like to go higher and further away for me to be able to use a slightly longer focal length but the view was obstructed. There was some wrought iron fencing on that side that I had to maneuver through, reducing the flexibility for composition since I had to use a tripod due to the low lighting conditions in the morning.

Thank you Joshua for the explanation.
Well, you did extremely well, regardless of the circumstances.
The gigantic area of stair steps is as impressive as the building itself and the location next to the bridge.
