Trust me the value outweighs the cost about 10:1...besides if you look at the other side of the valley the mountains look better anyway

Oh and in about ~50 years when the copper vein has ran out...they are going to re foliate the tailings pile and fill in the mine.

Couple of shots...

Love sunrise and sunsets @ 35K feet


Departure from SYD... one of the best flight paths on take-off in the world (IMHO).
