Early morning photo (5.40am) of the Sydney Opera House at the height of the christmas bushfires (2001). Note - no filters used. This is what it really looked like!

Hi Grant, I beleive you about the use of no filters. My brother sent me some photos and the light was just amazing... even throughout the day!!!Grant Brodie April 14, 2002
Hi Adam,You won't believe me...My family & I were coming into port on board P&O's 'Pacific Sky' after the Christmas cruise.
All the other passengers were on the other side taking shots of the ship docking (boring!). I knew better and waited for the ship to slide into the exact right position.
Thanks for the comments - Grant.
PS: Yes the exposure setting was tricky - I hedged my bets and bracketed the shot. #6902
