#1550 - I spoke too soon, again.
Looked at in on my big screen and saw it.
Sydney Harbour, Bridge on your left, Opera House on your right.

"Looks like Atlis"

Correct.

Sparkie2182 3rd November 2022 19:00

"Sydney Harbour, Bridge on your left, Opera House on your right"

Correct.

The apartments i felt were very recognisable and the lit landing stage of the fishing club made the pic viable as a location question.
A very nice area of Sydney to spend a few hours away from the tourists.

But this time checked before committing myself.
That double deck bridge is quite a bit of engineering.
