It was a gold mining town in the early days.

I actually visited many places in Victoria as I was there for 1 to 2 months (can't remember whether 1 or 2) the first time I visited. My uncle and his family were PRs (now citizens) and they drove me around.
that's cool... i wish i had a little more time there! but hey... there's always next time right! :bsmilie:
here's a few more....
The street
in the tram
and at the beach! (BATH HOUSES)
Really like the lights and shadows...lots to play around with. The dark clouds looming along Great Ocean Rd are just spectacular. For once, rain is good! Fav ones are the man with bicycle and some cafe portraits. The sigma 12-24 seems like a great one to use. Any other lens with similar range and quality? im poor
Thanks alot and yeah... opportunity limitless over there with the great light.
If you are looking at ultra wides, dun think there are many options cheaper than 12-24 on a full frame body. I used to own a sigma 10-20mm which i think is cheaper, but that is for cropped sensors only. The other options like the 16-35L from canon is way better in terms of image quality and is brighter with a constant aperture of f2.8, but of coz with the better quality comes a greater price

Sovereign Hill replicates a gold mining town, its like a junior theme park. You'd find a lot of rustic details and try out your luck with mining gold.....

Hi Shawn207,hey just asking people for advice..how's the weather like during winter in melbourne..forecast abt highest 16degree. but does anyone know whether there'll be sun in the day or foggy all around? thinking of making a trip there. thanks
Winter weather in Melbourne tends to be cloudy, windy and a bit wet.
And very foggy in the morning too.
But Melbourne weather is very unpredictable.
You may get blue skies in the morning and dark gloomy clouds
a 1 hour later !
You can check the weather at the following site :
