I'm passing on this message from the River Canoe Club's Yahoo group. The photos are well worth a look, especially if you are as fond of Sydney Harbour as I am :) .
Thousands of never-before-published photographs depicting Sydney's working harbour since the 1850s have been donated to the City of Sydney's Archives by Graeme Andrews OAM. Mr Andrews took photographs himself but also amassed a collection of over 100,000 photographs. The Working Harbour collection features about 10,000 photographs from his collection dating back up to 160 years and covering an area from Lake Macquarie in the north, south to Port Kembla and west to the Nepean River. The collection also features images by other photographers such as Ron Montgomery, Fred Saxon and the Dufty family of ship photographers.

Over 7,000 images from Mr Andrews collection are available to view on the Archives Pix website. To view these photos visit http://photosau.com.au/Cos/scripts/home.asp and search for 'Graeme Andrews'.
