The Eternal Flame..



Couldn't resist a few reflection shots of the Eternal Flame while in Kings Park on Thursday. It amazes me that even when the winds are as wild as they were at that moment, the flame keeps burning brightly. Above swaying to the right to expose the State War Memorial before consuming it in flames a second later below. The wreaths from a memorial service held over the past weekend looked particularly beautiful on this grey winter's day.. more of the same over the weekend, I hope :) Happy weekend, take care and stay safe..

  6. It is nice that it sits in water. Our eternal flame sits in a boring large bowl. The eternal flame in Canberra is pretty good.

  10. Great reflection shots, especially that first one. There's something about my holding a camera that seems to draw the wind. Especially if I'm shooting something small & delicate.

  14. Great reflections Grace. The weather is not much better in Sydney, or at least Central coast where we are now. No rain today, but cold and gray, really miserable :(
