Sydney Harbour Bridge, Australia.
This is my first entry for this week´s theme on 
I took this photo as we were leaving Sydney and about to start a 9 day cruise on the Radiance of the Seas. The distinctive shape of the Sydney Harbour Bridge stood out on the horizon behind the impressive wake of the ship.
The Sydney Harbour Bridge is affectionately known as "The Coathanger" and was opened in 1932 after taking six years to build. Interesting facts: It is made of steel. It contains 6 million rivets which were hand driven. When painting is required the area covered is equivalent to 60 sports fields.
Walking it requires a certain amount of fitness. After a long walk to the base of the pylon, 200 steps are required to reach the top. It cost sixpence to cross it when it was first opened. It is free to walk across and there is a bicycle track for bike riders in a special lane. The Sydney Harbour Bridge is the world's largest but not the longest. Total length = 1149 metres. Arch span = 503 metres. It consists of 8 vehicle lanes, two train lines, a footpath and a cycleway.
This image was captured with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ70 Camera.
