Road-tripping from Melbourne to Brisbane, we stopped in at Parkes, NSW to see the CSIRO Radio Telescope made famous by the great Australian movie, "The Dish"! I must admit it was an impressive sight. I am fascinated by science and technology and this particular icon represents a proud moment in Australian history, when the signal for the moon landing was beamed around the world.
I took this shot back in 2012 when I was on a camping trip to Dimboola. I liked the reflection on the water, but it was a dull day and the image just wasn't jumping out at me, so I thought I would play around with some effects. The solarisation effect reminds me of the film clip to the David Bowie song, Ashes to Ashes! I am quite happy with the result, but happy to hear what you think!
