Challenges.....!

Being the last night of the Perth Royal Show and not actually wanting to experience the crowds, we took a drive up to Reabold Hill 7kms west of Perth. The fantastic views of the city and the Indian Ocean from the boardwalk at the summit are well worth the trip. I did take these shots using a tripod but the distance and total lack of any kind of lighting proved a bit of a challenge for the Lumix using the 24X zoom. The shot below gives you a visual idea of the distance, there's Perth way back there on the horizon.....

I almost forgot to tell you the reason we went up Reabold Hill on the last night of the Perth Royal Show, it was for the fireworks...also quite a distance away and even more challenging and to cut a long story short..tah dah! here is my only firework shot worth showing (and even that's debatable haha!). I must get back there in the daylight and take some shots of the city and the ocean under less formidable circumstances. Hope you have a wonderful Sunday, take care.....
