Yeah. I've been told by other Kiwis, it's a great beautiful city. I guess Aussies haven't understood the potential to sell their own country. ;)

Great shots Duncan. Looks like you're getting ready for GKPE#2. :p

Thanks Wazza, yes I think a lot of countries have some really great things that just get ignored by the locals. Can't beat a bit of travel to go & put them right eh?

Nice shots Joeseph. I'm planning to visit Melbourne next year at some stage.

contrary to other suggestions
That'd be Sydneysiders :-). They think the best thing ever to come out of Melbourne is the Hume Highway. But on doing a little bit fo research I know I'll be doing a fair bit of photography, and your pictures confirm my theory ;-) !.

I'm sure there's stuff most places to take photos of if you're creative enough. Nice shots there.
