How close to Claremont is that image. I had no clue of distance on my trip to Perth so this is why I ask because I know Claremont was in this general direction.

Hello all,

This is my contribution of Sydney:

It aint an aussie city, but...Auckland from the North Shore:

I reckon a good suburb shot with Sydney in the distance is where the Comanara Parkway ends on that main road near North Ryde. Don't know that area well but passed through it heaps. Top view into the city.

Here are more images of the Sydney skyline from the burbs

defec8R you've done it again. THAT IS A GREAT SHOT - Love the density

Okay here's another. This takes in Southport to Broadbeach. Shows how far the highrises have spread. I guess one day they'll cover the beach all the way to Tweed Heads.

OK, now I am confused. How is Brisbane Airport the best designed in Aus? they had enough space to combine the International Terminal to the Domestic Terminal and yet they seperated them. It's just inconvienient to say the least to have to get a train 200 m down the road.

Another case of Brisbane gloating Jayt?

BTW, Nice pic Grollo

I was talking about the INTERNATIONAL terminal design on its own. Its quite impressive in the early morning mist.

In this photo it looks awsome.
http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=229094

Why, do you have a problem with this? Are you offended because someone has posted a great picture of Brisbane airport and skyline? Does it upset you that Brisbane can look so good?

Personally, I think that Brisbane is worth gloating about:D

JT

I love Brisbane, i think it should be more internationally recognised. i have no problem with it whatsoever.

Sydney from Kogarah

http://img8.photobucket.com/albums/v28/Fabian/a40f1ff1.jpg

Here's a new pic of Sydney from Homebush Bay. I took it yesterday. World Tower and Latitude have bought some balance to the skyline. It makes for a nice backdrop for the Easter Show.

http://img8.photobucket.com/albums/v28/Fabian/6e154ee5.jpg.

man. what can I say.. so many stunning panoramas!!

Yeah, i'll second that. But Fabians last one, while good, is just taken in bad conditions, as the smog/haze is real bad, and makes out for one polluted city, (not trying to be rude ot Sydney here).

Fabians Sydney from east Redfern is a great colour shot. Almost too colourful compared to most others of yours Fabian. I'm almost willing to say that it isn't your photo.

And Flyin' Higher sydneys sky hardly ever looks like that, especially since the easter show started it is just Fabians camera.:)

I just had a flick at the air quality for last Friday when the pic was taken and pollution was quite low. The overcast weather I think is to blame for the pic not coming out as well as it should. I was expecting it to be more sunny.

The Kogarah one was taken on a day of medium pollution readings.

Yeah fair enough, I spose those long distance shots are better taken, when the weather is great :cheers:

Here are a few more of Sydney skyline when viewed from the burbs

^The second one there is the "Don't f**k with me" shot. Awesome.

World Tower and Citibank have done so much to expand the scope of Sydney's skyline in the last 5 years ..

I reckon a good suburb shot with Sydney in the distance is where the Comanara Parkway ends on that main road near North Ryde. Don't know that area well but passed through it heaps. Top view into the city.

I was out in the area over the weekend and took this from the top floor of the Sydney Adventist Hospital at Wahroonga. It's a ripper view. The CBD is 20km away.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v28/Fabian/SydneyskylineAdventistHospital.jpg

I also recommend the Pacific Highway at Pymble for some great skyline shots including Chatswood & North Sydney.

Luck that you revived this thread today! Just took a couple of photos of Melbourne today from lvl 9 of the S block at Monash University, Caulfield campus. I've put them below.

I want a good camera so i can take a pic from the top of Camelia Ave (Many Brisbaners know it since many of us are from around the Ferny grove/Arana Hills area)

Thats an awesome view from there...same with up in the hills of Mitchelton.

Is it just me? for has riparian made the city stand out more? I'm finding great views from places I haven't really taken any notice before.

I was in the front passenger seat. There is no way i can take a photo and have my fingers on the wheel at the same time.

And coming down the Pacific Highway. This was well after the event, I had a great view of Chatswood but couldn't get the camera ready in time.

Ive lived in Japan for 6 years.To see the Pacific Highway at Pymble brings tears to my eyes.

A sight so familar yet distant in my memory.Everything from the number plates to the form one lane sign brings back my life in Australia to the forefront of my memory.

I will return home for good in 2006.

I also noticed in the pic,there is a massive new building to the left of the Zenith center in Chastwood.What is it? is it the area above the railway station that was never developed after the crash of 87?

Holy shit

That is the most dense picture ive ever seen of the Sydney CBD.

Incredible zoom on that camera.All the way from Warroonga!!!


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v28/Fabian/SydneyskylineAdventistHospital.jpg

Your not wrong about that Waroonga pic, looks almost as if it's taken from North Sydney.

As for Chatswood, it's the Epica buiding/s. There are two of them (they love twin buildings in Chatswood) and they are north of the station, just to the west of the train line. The big one is about 96m.

Wahroonga. Where's it taken from? The San?

Wow!! Great shots!! :)

I heard that a woman once drove her car off the top level of the carpark at Westfield Miranda, straight onto the street below?

Perfect for hearing impaired people.

That apartment is a bit too close to the Bridge - I've stayed at Kiribilli further south and was amazed at how much noise came from the bridge all day and night

Wow!! Great shots!! :)

Thats not true. I've never heard of an incident like it.

^^
Fair enough, i can't remember who told me that, i was told about it a long time ago. The last time i went to Miranda actually. Would have been about 1998-99 or something.

Does the forum have any picutures of them? are they now the tallest in Chastwood?

Epica is the tallest at 96 metres. I've taken a few shots of Chatswood and they are hard to spot on the skyline from most angles like here at Homebush. you cannot even see Epica in this one (taken in Mar 05)

It's bizzare you find skylines where the tallest cannot be seen from some angles:eek2:

I need to get one from the East where they are more noticable eg Seaforth.

Great city Views.

The melbourne ones are best, but i swear to god everytime i see one taken from a different angle or location buildings MOVE. like entity's post. that seems strange.

love eurekas dominance. really need to fill that gap though, is an eyesore.

Love those last few of Melbourne.In particular, I love that bayside shot. Where was that one taken? From those angles, it appears that their skyline is just as long as Sydney's skyline with the density included :)

if you take a real close look at the last melbourne one, it seems as if the left collins st twin tower is leaning.... very odd.

not enough melbourne on here!

here is one from footscray.

that is absolutely awesome!

Wow! Awesome pics everyone, even if some of the photo links have long since expired. This has got to be one of the longest running active threads on the boards - nearly 2 years now! :eek2:

This has been a great thead in which to replenish my AUS folder after a very unfortunate deletion accident :(

Keep up the good work! :okay:

My quality isn't as up to scratch as the ones posted above, (first picture postings). Here's some of Perth from various points around town.

Can anyone see the faint outline of the Glasshouse Mountains in Defec8R's Brisbane pic above? When you can see them they change the whole entire picture.

The skyline has changed significantly with the addition of KENS, Deutschbank, Fraiser Suites and the rapidly rising Meriton Tower.

Brisbane from Carmody Rd, St Lucia. Excuse the power lines.

http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h318/cj_81_/DSC00443.jpg

Never Mind about the powerlines. This thread is about showing how skylines would appear from typical suburban streets and settings, as long as we can see it :) Good effort Brissy with those shots. It's not about the postcard shots where nothing stands in the way or capturing skylines from their best angle.

If you look up at my skyline shots of Brisbane, one has trees in the way and the other overheadwiring on a railway line.
