First Outing - The Rocks

With the purchase of two brand new mini 4/3 cameras, we decided to take them out for our first ever photo-outing. What better place in Sydney, then to visit the icons as well as the back streets @ The Rocks.

After some small "incidental" dramas (which I won't go in too much detail) we got down to some business ...

Location of our outing


It is close to compulsory to take care of these two photo subjects if we go to the rocks for pictures
Walking away from the bridge and opera house, we started looking for other photo targets.. and one of the first we came across was a nice city sky-line


We contemplated taking care of some business by helping them refill their water steppes or in the alleyways. Until we realised toilets were just round the corner.

Nice alleyway behind Orient Hotel with their X'mas lighting still up. Makes a good shot
How nicely symmetrical have the local council designed this alleyway :P

You cant visit the rocks without taking this shot as well. Works great for when it's time to sell it.
All in all, a fun outing at the rocks. Although there were more places which I'm sure would make nice pictures, time wasn't on our side and we couldn't visit them all... theres always next time.
