Story Bridge in Brisbane Australia for Sunday Best


 Brisvegas is alive.

The Story Bridge is a heritage listed steel cantilever bridge spanning the Brisbane River that carries vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian traffic between the northern and the southern suburbs of Brisbane, Australia. It is the longest cantilever bridge in Australia.

The road across the bridge is named Bradfield Highway. The bridge connects Fortitude Valley to Kangaroo Point. The Story Bridge opened in 1940 and was tolled until 1947. It is named after prominent public servant John Douglas Story.

Given the early settlement of Kangaroo Point, there is a long history of residents wanting a bridge between the Brisbane CBD and Kangaroo Point. Even while the first Victoria Bridge was being constructed between North Brisbane and South Brisbane in 1865, several hundred people were petitioning for a second bridge to be built from the Customs House to Kangaroo Point. In 1888, a meeting was held in the Brisbane Town Hall to demand a bridge connecting either George Street, Albert Street or Edward Street via the City Botanic Gardens with any loss of the land from the gardens to be potentially compensated by removing Government House.

The photography tips for beginners in photography:


1. If you wanna freeze the action, don’t increase your shutter speed. Just ask the players to freeze and not move.

2. You can clean your camera with soap

3. Some part of your finger should appear in the camera. Gives a nice blur and focus

4. You don't need a lens to take good photos

5. Lens cap ON, iso to MAX

6. Time for a deep clean? Be sure to exfoliate your sensor

Melbourne Lightscape for Sunday Best

 


This is the royal botanic garden. It costs 55 bucks for all time entry. No refund possible. Joel and I came here ready to shoot on Thursday night. This lake in the garden is usually quite boring for me. Not that night.

Tree of life in Yana Waingi Swan Hill for Treasure Tuesday

 


Tree of life light up in Swan Hill - a treasure 


I am day 1 in Brisbane. The hotel does not allow check in until 15 pm. That is a bit late compared to the average check in time around 13 pm. 

I might not be able to post because I will be visiting Moreton Island for some ship wreck snapping opportunities.

Meteor Sign in Melbourne Museum for Tom's Sign2

 


I was in a dinosaur Melbourne Museum. This sign marks the end of the fossil tour. A fitting meteor for the tragic ending.

Restaurant Lucy Liu Sign for Tom's Sign2

 


This entrance has been viral on IG for so many years. It is almost like a cult happening. The food is of fusion style between southeast Asia and Japanese. A bit dear for the pricing. But my former photo group always come to meet here for the sake of taking a snap at the front door. I guess we are all addicted to mad marketing on social media.
