One could always tell a photograph's location if the distinctive Darwin water tower was in the backgroud.
It has now gone, being moved to the Australian Aviation Heritage Centre where it will be put on display Attached Image |

The water tower was moved quite a while ago. It has been repainted but it is not at the full height. I think they left out a few of the leg sections to reduce the height. I will get a photo when I drive past it tomorrow and post it.

Thanks John,
It's usually the landing aircraft that lose altitude - not the tower! ;) Brendan |
