My town - Brisbane. Situated on the meandering Brisbane River, Brisbane is the 3rd largest city in Australia. This shot is taken from the boardwalk which takes you from under the Story Bridge to the Botanical Gardens. Along this very pretty walk there are many fabulous restaurants where you can stop in for a drink or a meal and take in the view.

This bridge has been a part of Brisbane for a very long time - I have fond memories of it when I was a little girl

A very wet Good Friday Dawn in Brissie.
A breathtaking 23 metres in height, Venus Rising is a stainless steel structure made up of hundreds of interlocking rings and polished tubes that twist gently at the waist to create a hollow spiral. The artist has said it was inspired by the intersecting rings of a nautilus shell and at a ceremony to mark its arrival, Minister for Government Services, Building Industry and Information and Communication Technology Simon Finn claimed it would become a beacon on Brisbane's skyline. Illuminated from the base, the piece can be entered at ground level. Once inside, observers can look up to the sky through an 'oculus' at the top.
Everyone has their take on this now famous landmark in Brisbane, this is mine.
I love this time of morning, everything is so fresh - even in the city!
A glorious sunset over Brisbane 's Story Bridge.
I went to the opening of an art exhibition at the Judith wright centre in the valley last week. The exhibition is from female artists from outback Qld.If you get a chance pop in and have a look the work is all so beautiful, definitely worth the visit. On the way home I detoured to New Farm to shoot this scene, I hope you like it :)
Taken from under the Story Bridge in Brisbane just before dawn. I was hoping for a beautiful sunrise but it just wasn't to be this particular morning.
Good Friday Morning in Brisbane was a very wet one however the clouds cleared for about 10 minutes at dawn allowing for these pretty colours to appear before the sky was consumed by grey again.
