A work event at Newcastle Golf Club that I posted about previously introduced me to this location.  Since it has such great views over the area, it seemed like a good spot to have lunch when mum was visiting.  I also took along the camera so, after we had eaten, I could use the longer lens to get some shots of the area.  I also shot a few panos to see how they would work out and how bad the heat haze might prove to be.  Things came out better than I had expected.  I did also shoot a bunch of identical shots to use the statistic function in Photoshop to try and remove heat distortion but, to be honest, the original distortion was not that bad and the edited shots weren’t any better.
