Here's a slightly different view of the Penitentiary at the well-known historical site of Port Arthur,
in Tasmania.
After drizzling for most of the day, the sun came out for a brief period of time, providing great lighting on the grass and the Penitentiary. It also resulted in a rainbow, as seen in the top left of the photo, with the recognisable shape of the Penitentiary in the background.
The lichen on the paling fence was particularly interesting, so I went for a wide open aperture, and focused on the fence.

Excellent work. A good photo makes you say "Nice." An excellent photo is thought provoking.It leads you into the scene and makes you one with it. This one does that!
