This shot was taken on Australia Day 2004. My GG Grandfather was shipped to this spot as a convict around 1807, and it was a vastly different landscape then!

A little slow to load, but a very nice shot.
Speaking of frames, what software did you use to get this one? I've been trying a few lately but I haven't found anything great yet.

Ps elements 2, foreground colour effect eg click Window - Effects - Frames - Foreground colour. You will have to select which colour you want to use. Remember also the "X" key switches from foreground colour to background and vice versa.

Nope, he came on the good ship HMS ? from the old bailey...however, funny you should start me on the history bit, he was incarcerated for about 7 years, got his freedom, worked for Cox the road builder, and was, tradition says, the first man to drive a team of horses over the Blue mountains and on to the Bathurst Plains, where he (and eventually the Young family) settled freely.

Great photo.
I really like the border too, quite bold but it works really well.
Good shot.
