Are You Going To Scarborough Fair? - a photo on Flickriver

Well it's back to Sydney harbour for this photo of 'Scarborough'.
'Scarborough' is a First Fleet Class ferry.

And to accompany 'Scarborough', as it passes McMahons Point and the Blues Point Tower, here is the VERY lovely Sarah Brightman with her gorgeous version of: 'Are You Going To Scarborough Fair?'

Now apparently Scarborough Fair was held in Scarborough, in North Yorkshire, England, from the 1200s to the 1800s. And, as I discovered, Scarborough is a coastal town with a beach. It looks amazing - a bit like Bondi here in Sydney!! What a groovy place for a fair. And I thought Yorkshire was bleak, as in 'Wuthering Heights', which was set someone in Yorkshire.

So here's information about the cool coastal township of Scarborough. Check out the amazing beach. A great place for parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.

Anyway, back to Sydney, and the 'Scarborough' ferry is travelling past McMahons Point on its way to Milsons Point and then Circular Quay. Oh - and I used a zoom lens, so you can zoom in on the 'Scarborough' ferry.

Photographed from the other side of the harbour at Wharf 2/3, Walsh Bay Wharf Precinct - Hickson Road, Dawes Point.

My Canon EOS 5D Mk IV with the Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6L lens.
