That’s a very beautiful picture! I love how the tilt shift lens enhances the colour of the sky and the water.

I’d love to visit Australia one day :slight_smile:

@LuisRG Hello, I always wondered if a thread like this would arise, during my time as a local guide which is around 4 years I’ve never seen a photo come on this media platform,

as you mentioned under

would there be a reason? or

@KlaudiyaG Thank you kindly right now for embarrassing my thoughts and my photos, these are on Google Maps the first one is recent and the others are from 36Walk Perth last year and I am looking for new photos of Perth because a lot of construction is taking place and overall the Google platforms to view Perth are old so I will be bringing some fantastic new photos thank you @KlaudiyaG @LuisRG

@DavidTito ,

The pleasure was all mine and remember I’m impatiently waiting for the new photos!

See you around,

Klaudiya

That tilt shift of the SOH and its green surroundings is so beautiful! It’s really got so much flavour and detail going into it. I have never seen the green outlining from within the Opera House. But maybe that’s just some of the renovation works that are occurring behind the scenes, maybe some sort of scaffolding or plastering work? Hehe.

Although I would really adore to have a professional camera SLR with a dedicated lens and barrel to get these sort of shots, I’m making real do with my Pixel. Yay!
