What can your photographer do while the concrete is curing? Why, take a photo of course!
If you look at the ridge line in our main photo of Hobart, yes the one at the top of this and every page and post, you’ll see a ‘notch’ or a sharp dip about ⅓ of the way across from the left. It isn’t really a notch or a dip, the intersecting hills just appear to create one when looking from the Rosny Hill Lookout, about 8 kilometres (5 miles) as the crow flies from our building site, across the Derwent River.
Zooming in from the same spot where our composite banner photo was shot, here’s a ‘close-up’ view:
The ferry to MONA, the Museum of Old and New Art, heads up river to Berriedale. The suburb of Battery Point hugs the shore with Sandy Bay, Dynnyrne and finally Tolmans Hill below the ridge line.
The white dot is us.
We can appreciate from a different perspective what it means to be some 282 metres (925 ft) above sea level.
Does anyone have a longer lens – and a steadier hand?

If the lens was any longer it would make your place look like water frontage!
Mike, if anyone would have that longer lens it would be you! For blog followers, in many ways the seed for HobartHillHouse was planted in part by Mike’s ‘Buick Travel Photography Blog‘ of extended trips to Argentina (2009) and the USA (2011 and 2013). Thanks Mike!
