spot the tourist icons

My get-pushed challenge this week was from from Peter de Graaff, who asked me to take a photo or photos that characterised the design of the planned city of Canberra - the capital city of Australia that was designed by Walter Burley Griffin, an American landscape architect.

If you (are interested!!) enlarge this shot (taken from the roof of Parliament House), and see then entire planning of the Parliamentary triangle - from the left...Commonwealth Avenue, Captain Cook fountain, National library, Old parliament House, War Memorial (Prince Charles & Camilla were there at the exact time I took this shot), Lake Burley Griffin, Anzac Parade, the American Eagle at Russell, and Kings Avenue.

Bingo!

Urban architecture is definitely not my thing, so (Peter) I am pleased this is the last shot of this challenge! :))

this is beautiful... and i particularly like the couple hugging on the right hand side :) (they give a nice context and sense of scale to the entire image)

You've captured the essence of this city and what an amazing sky as well.

[Peter de Graaff]

Well done. All roads radiate from Parliament
