If you're going to lose your job then try.

But also, do look for something a little stable as you might find that money dwindles.

From experience, this business is VERY cut-throat and you can be tossed aside quite easily.

It's definitely a great view! Just wish that I had more time in the area.

Going to see if I can fix that in 2012, especially as I have an idea for something in that area ;)

Well, this was taken a few photos later. It is wider than the one sent to the mag. It also includes some of the foreground.

I do have a landscape version of this with more showing on either side. However, I've sent it off to my contact at Digital Camera Mag, so I'm a little reluctant to post it.
