130406_072208_29772 We Did Have Some Winter, Once (Sat 06 Apr 13)

Lake Belvedere, Sydney Olympic Park, Homebush, NSW

It's hard to remember now, since the ensuing few months since I shot this (I'm posting it on 27 August) have been largely dry and temperate, but here lies living proof that in the early part of the autumn / winter season there was indeed a bit of rain.

This is of course Lake Belvedere at Sydney Olympic Park, a place that was once only a 20 minute drive from me and which therefore featured in a lot of my weekend PADs back in 2010/2011. Now, however, it's a much greater distance and I rarely venture here, which leaves me wondering what on Earth I was doing here on this particular day and consequently why I leave it 4 months to post PAD shots.

I think that I was here on my way to the Showground up the road to collect my award-unwinning entries in the 2013 Royal Easter Show; it's the only reason that I can think of why I would have been here at that time.

It was an incredible winter of mild temps and sunny days...now rain would be most welcome

Now, THAT looks like an Irish winter, dull, grey, damp and miserable.
It makes for a nice atmospheric shot though with those muted hues.
