* Winter By The Lake *<p>

Uploaded: July 05, 2011

Description

Today Phil and I found this sheltered spot overlooking Lake Macquarie at Rathmines, NSW...on a clear, but rather blustery and cold, winter's day! The stretch of water in view here was part of the landing area for the Catalina Flying Boats based at the Rathmines RAAF (Royal Australian Air Force) Base during the Second World War...

Captured early afternoon, in mid-winter, on the 5th of July 2011...

Your winter would sure feel good right now if it were here. We are cooking.

Great shooting, I bet some of those old veterans would love to see how it has changed in the last 70 years. #9511199
