This viewing area looks out across Duck Pond in Centennial Park in the eastern suburbs. It features a unique decorative fence and is shaded by palms which line Parkes Drive. The birds in the pond include waterfowl, ducks, ibises and swans, while the trees and fence attract pigeons and sea gulls.
That is an interesting iron fence!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful view with a creative fence and palm feature!
ReplyDeleteGreat shadows, beautiful blue skies and a lovely place to sit and enjoy the view! I like the fence, too!
ReplyDeleteThese big public spaces are so important in urban areas - I wonder if they would build them today?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on my blog - I've been in Oman for a week hence slow reply!

Stewart, we seem to lose a lot of these public spaces to developers and don't often see new ones anywhere.
DeleteReally need a long lens shooting those birds, looks like a huge park !
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful park and a beautiful day to be out shadow sleuthing!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot! I haven't visited this place but one day I will.
ReplyDeleteSerenity emanates from this photo. I can imagine sitting there, feeding the waterfowl--with healthy snacks, of course!
