Close enough. It's looking from the park at the top of Mt Warrigal across Lake Illawarra's upper section towards Warrawong with the tops of Bluescope Steel in the background. Roughly centre is the top on No6 blast furnace, the chimney to the left hand side of the photo is the Electrolytic smelter chimney, no longer in service and there is a big concrete plug in the top. There was talk of knocking it down, but it was so well built it would have to be dismantled from the top down, it can't be simply dropped. There is nothing wrong with the chimney, just the plant that used it has be closed long ago.
Your turn Dottie

You may have to allow popups for this site to be able to browse properly.
How far can you get following those instructions?

Yep... read that a cupla minutes ago & following those instructions not a problem.
The problem I'm still having is getting my pics reduced to the pixel size needed, tried a few different downloads but nothing works for me so far. I'm assuming the difference between this site & CF is the pixel size of the pics?
