I always enjoyed Canberra's wide open skies and sunsets, but 1999 was a particularly good year for them. That autumn, driving west each day after work, I'd see endless combinations of orange and rose. Somehow I hardly ever had a camera with me. Then, walking back to the car one evening after a seminar at ANU, I saw the sun start to go down behind Black Mountain and the Telstra Tower. Luckily, I'd brought the digital camera from work—only a megapixel or so, but enough to capture the sky's spectacular transformation.

SKY is tailored for medium-to-large displays and high-bandwidth connections. You'll get the best results if you resize your window to 1024x768 pixels. Viewing results are best if you wait for the next image to preload before clicking through to the next page—just watch the status bar below. Click anywhere on an image to see the next—the gallery cycles back to the beginning when it's done.
