22 June 2004 - Illawarra Line rail bridge, swim baths & marina on the Georges River at Como, New South Wales, Australia

            IMAGE INFO
- Late afternoon viewpoint is looking due north across the historic old swim baths on the Georges River.
- The original single line steel lattice rail bridge seen here was a real bottleneck on the Illawarra line & was replaced on 27 Nov 1972 with a newer double line concrete structure, immediately to the west of (behind) the old bridge.
- The boats are moored at the Como Marina facilities (their boat-shed is just out of shot to the left of pic).
- The original bridge was refurbished & re-purposed as a dual-use pedestrian/cycle path, opening to the public on 15 Dec 1985.
********************************
SOURCE INFO
- Original image was captured using a CANON A75 PowerShot 3.2MP digital compact point & shoot camera (medium resolution setting).
********************************
PROCESS INFO
- Post-processed using Adobe Photoshop CS Windows (improved overly dark original levels).
