Tbanks for the nice pics Mort! Detail/focus in images both close-in and far away (i.e. other side of harbour, though not that it really matters!) is impressive, so what camera were you using?

I noticed the same thing. The depth of focus is surprising for what appears to be a quite long lens.
Luv ya work!

Thanks for the kind words on the photos It's definitely the camera making the pics look good not me!

The Camera in question is an Olympus OM-D E-M5 (not the flash new Mark II that was recently released) using a Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm lens that came with the camera. I bought it when I saw the following deal posted on Ozbargain last year www.ozbargain.com.au/node/188390. A good site to keep an eye on, as they know about anything & everything that's on special, except maybe Windsurfing gear

The pics are taken from the little grassed rigging area just the other side of the bike/walking path. The lens was at maximum zoom & then I just used Paint to crop the images down. For example the pre cropped image Decrepit posted above I've posted below.

Hope that helps answer the queries

Here is a few more pics I got before the battery died on me.
