RE: Boring but: RARE and NEVER to be photographed again: Views from the Roseville Bridge. Sydney, Australia. Part 1. Original Photography.

in #australia6 years ago

Funny and scary all at the same time Melinda. I'll share the whole story soon. I'd been on the bridge for about an hour and had just about reached the far end, when I saw a police car approaching ~ Everything went into slow motion, as the car slowed down.

And I was wondering if I'd be arrested for unlawfully walking on the bridge ~ And 'Ally's voice' was saying: I could have told you so!' 😊

I was in luck though. After asking me why I was there, and seeing my camera, the two policemen were really good natured and surprisingly allowed me to continue. But by this stage, I'd really had more than enough of being blasted by cars ~ And buses ~ And just wanted to be on safer ground.

My only regret was that I didn't ask them if I could take their photograph. 😊

Sort:  

Hahaha! The things we do just to get a photo! Glad you were not arrested....wonder how good Steem is at helping raise money for getting photographers out of jail? 😂😂😂

😊 They won't let you take cameras (even phones) on the usual walk to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. So scaling Sydney Harbour Bridge before dawn is next. Just kidding Melinda. 😊

I wonder. Not that I would expect anyone to bail me out ~ But you know, if you were ever in a 'real pickle' and had to turn to your friends on any of the Social Media platforms, I think you would have more chance of being helped by your friends at Steemit than anywhere else.

But imagine what it would be like to climb Sydney Harbour Bridge? This is the view from the top. 💖

Wait! If you can't take a camera how did you get that photo? Did you really go to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge? Holy cow. But no sneaking up there at night, ok? And I think you are right if you ever did need help I think your steemit friends would be some that you could count on.

😊 I should have added ~ 'This photograph was taken by a professional photographer for Bridge Climb Sydney.

I promise you I won't be attempting to climb it at night ~ A feral climber would definitely be prosecuted ~ And they would be caught for sure as there is so much security there. But my mind does love to play with the idea of 'What if?' 😊

Here's another one for you Melinda: From the Bridge Climb Sydney website. After looking at the website, I'm inspired to do it, even without a camera, just for the experience ~ Although it's frightfully expensive.

What an adventure that would be! If you are able and can afford it I would definitely cheer you on! That's something you'd be able to tell your grandchildren! My grandkids love hearing stories of some of my Adventures. They see me as a little old lady, and it gives them a totally different perspective of me as a person when they hear some of the places I've been in some of the things I have done. Go do it!

I think I'll have to Melinda. Will have to start training for all those steps. Would be a 'killer' otherwise. 😊

I can imagine you telling your real life adventure tales to your grandkids ~ And them getting more and more exciting as time recreates and embellishes them. 🌀

Hahaha! Well, maybe just a little!
