Photographer’s Note
This shot was taken in China Shenzhen. For the real scene in Sydney, I visited there from 2002, but i like also this reflection and color scene. I hope you like it and give any comment. Thanks so much
"Just near Splendid China and China Folk Culture Villages, the park is contains examples of famous attractions from all over the world. With an area of 480,000 square meters, the park contains different sections covering Asia, the Pacific, Europe, Africa, and America, as well as three others with exhibitions of modern technology, classic sculptures, and famous avenues from all over the world.
Marvelous sights and sites of historical interest in the world, ancient and modern, natural landscapes and cultural sites as well as dwelling houses, sculptures, drawings and even folklore and theatrical performances are here! Each is presented as wonderful miniature replicas, made on a scale of 1:1, 1:5 and 1:1.5 respectively.
Among the 118 scenic spots, you can find the pyramids of Egypt, the Amon Temple of Karnak, the Angkor Wat of Cambodia, the Grand Canyon of America, L'Arc de Triomphe of Paris, St. Peter's Cathedral of the Vatican City, the Taj Mahal of India, the Sydney Opera House of Australia, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Some large-sized spectacular attractions are also available, like the 108-meter-tall replica of the Eiffel Tower. Once reaching its top by elevator, one can take in the beautiful scenery of Shenzhen and Hong Kong. In addition, the Niagara Falls in miniature is more than 80 meters wide and 10 meters tall. Tourists will also be fascinated by the view of the active Hawaii Volcanoes, an intriguing scene of glowing rocks with surging molten lava, and the fountains, which spurt water as high as 100 meters.

Hi Huy,
Excellent composition very well balanced. I like very much the reflections inside the water. Perfect symmetry too!

Hi Huy. I must say how perfectly exposed this one is with us being able to take in the blue sky. That sounds like a neat museum. I wonder what bridge this is supposed to emulate in real life. At any rate I love the reflections. tfs Huy!

Hi Huy
This is quite an interesting place and the tect are noted well. The reflection are most excellent.
But unfortunately the image is pretty blurred.
You should adjust your aperture value to f/11.0 and above to produce much sharpness.
Landscape shot should at least have the value of aperture at f/8.0.
Try it our again, pal, and I believe you will see the different.
Well done, Huy.
