This is not the usual Melbourne CBD shot. I took this looking west from the Yarra Bend Bluffs next to the FA Andrews Reserve. Photo by: dpb photos (www.dpb-photos.com)
With row-boats in the distance and a eight-station rowing shell in the foreground, this stretch of the Yarra is ideal for those who derive pleasure from the joy of rowing.
Finding a picture is like looking for a minnow in a pond.
Formerly orchards, the park has a diverse ecology; this includes a riparian strip of native bushland around the creek, areas of pine trees planted by early settlers and pockets of fruit trees remaining from past orchards. Photo by: dpb photos (www.dpb-photos.com)
Another shot from the same location as the previous photo. I took this looking west from the Yarra Bend Bluffs next to the FA Andrews Reserve.
Row-boats tied dockside ready for the rush of summer patrons that make this location so popular amongst locals and visitors alike. After working up an appetite, boaters can order refreshments and snacks from the boathouse, and if a reservation is made in advance, can dine on the fine eating restaurant.
