Description
In the 1920's this was a cottage built by an Opal miner in the Central NSW area which was to become the town of Lightning Ridge north of Walgett. Interesting place to work and a nice breed of people!Related content

Out of curiosity, did you use a polarising filter with this? I have one myself but havn't got round to using it. The sky is such a deep blue.

It was midday and from memory I'm pretty ssure I did... I can remember rotating it to get the right effect. Remeber they work best at a 90 degree angle to the sun.... so not if the suns behind or infront of you.

I'd go with this one...I like the distortion from the ultra-wide angle...it really works with this composition

A tough one choosing between this and Watch your head, still going with this even though I liked how the sign was more visible in the other one. Here I like how I can see more of the wired fence and the landscape, they frame the cottage so nicely. I also like the colours, it's amazing how you always get them sort of sunburned, it's like there'd be a huge stamp shouting Australia straight to my face. (:

I agree with your analysis! Maybe I could put an Australia watermark across them!

Great image. Nailed composition. Looks like you have significant sensor dust in upper right corner. Only noticable in this and a few other recent photos.
