Description

Our beautiful Warragamba Dam, New South Wales, Australia. (Greater Sydney catchment).
I visited the dam just a few days ago. It is set in such a natural and beautiful bush land environment. It was around 1.3 hrs drive from the north of Sydney.
This image is a panorama of three of my photographic images I stitched together in Photoshop to make this Panoramic image. This one shows the rock wall on the side of the dam which show part of the Visitor Center above.
It was a hot day, and as we've had lots of rain recently, the colors or the bush land were magnificent. The greens were very green and even the water was a beautiful blue. Did lots of walking and just enjoyed the views.
The body of water for collection is called Lake Burragorang.

As at Wednesday 13th January 2021, the dam was at 97.2% capacity level.
