Skywatch - Bench with a View


South Head is a peninsula. Along one side, we face east and look out to the Pacific Ocean (upper photo). Along the other side, we face west and look up Port Jackson, Sydney Harbour (lower photo).

Come sit with me a while.

    Sigh... Yes I could do with a little rest today, just sitting and watching the lovely view.
    Nice shots, Julie

    Dreaming while the skies and waters sing their song for the day! A wonderful past-time! And to have 2 water view styles is a bonus!

    Now that is a bench worth sitting on ... I image watching that boat sail back and forth and feel the warm sun on my skin.

    one so desolate the other so populous! one to wake you up, the other to calm you down, both to allow you to dream!

    I had not though along those lines, GDP, but you are right. The 'heads' are a line that the intrepid cross!

    I'll have a wee chat with National Parks & Wildlife folk, and get them to lengthen the bench ...

    I think I could spend all afternoon going from one bench to the other. Any chance of a footstool?
