The summit of Mt Ainslie is great for panoramas of the city of Canberra - especially at night. However, in the spirit of this blog site, we are always seeking the effect of vertigo. Rather than letting the camera record a scene or event - let the image itself be an event. Thus, to achieve this shot, I've zoomed the lens during the long exposure.
The effect we strive for, is therefore - in Baudrillard's words -
“To rediscover the image as point of convergence between the light from the object and the light from the gaze.”
