Reflections in Water.
I am submitting these two images as my entries into the current B&W Photo Contest New Theme Announcement organized by @daveks Theme: 'Reflections in Water.'
Here are the details if you'd like to share your photos too. Click Here:
Entry 1: "Under The Bridges."
The Brisbane River, flows through an urban area which comprises of 1.8 million people. It has fifteen major bridges which cross it from the Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges downstream to the Centenary bridge upstream.
The aboriginal name for the Brisbane River is Maiwar and it is the longest river in South East Queensland, Australia. John Oxely was the first European to explore this river and he named it after the Governor of New South Wales, Sir Thomas Brisbane in 1823. Later on, the penal colony of Moreton Bay used the same name, Brisbane for the city, itself.
It looks impressive during the day, but at night it looks spectacular! The Channel Seven Wheel of Brisbane provides 360 degree views of Brisbane City from the hub of Brisbane’s cultural lifestyle and entertainment precinct.......the South Bank Parklands. The gondalas are not only fully air conditioned, passengers enjoy an audio tour which informs visitors of the different landmarks and facts about the city of Brisbane.
The Wheel is turned by tyres on the two outer rims and these tyres are driven by 4 powerful DC motors. An operator, sits in the control booth aided by the computer system and drive controls which start and stop the Wheel.
Balancing the wheel is critical, therefore care is given to how it is loaded to ensure that if for any reason the main power supply is cut off, guests can be unloaded safely using the natural force of gravity.
The camera I used for these images is a Panasonic DMC-FZ70
