I understand why you're so fond of that shot.  It's a gem.

Modest list!?  Pah!  I went to Sydney three years ago with just an OM-1
and Zuiko 50mm f/1.8.  It was all I owned at the time.  If I had your
choice now, I'd take the 21mm, 28mm and 35-70mm, but then I don't really
like telephoto lenses, and there are many superb wide-angle shots to be
had in Sydney.

I may be going back there in November, if I'm lucky.  One of the places
I'll definitely return to is the Sydney Tower, where I took my favourite
ever photo:

you're interested.
