Images of Canberra – Shepards Lookout

lemaChet 15 April 2007 17 April 2007 4

I took this over the Easter long weekend, from Shepards lookout at the back of Holt.
I’ve done some Post-Production on it, which is why it looks so dark and red.

Shepards Lookout at Sunset

Original image as below… I had to doctor it, as it looked crap.

YEa, there are better places in and around Victoria.
Check out some of my photos from the Queenscliff area on my flickr account

Top photo mate. Better views south, but you have shown the good side of the ACT well. Some less visited and very scenic/historic spots around the Orroral River area are worth a visit.
