The Sydney Opera House is located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site on June 28, 2007.[1] Based on the competition winning entry by Danish architect Jørn Utzon, the Sydney Opera House is one of the world's most distinctive 20th century buildings, and one of the most famous performing arts venues in the world. It was among the 20 selected finalists in the 2007 New Seven Wonders of the World project.

The Sydney Opera House is situated on Bennelong Point in Sydney Harbour, close to the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The building and its surroundings are one of the best known icons of Australia.

As well as many touring theatre, ballet, and musical productions, the Opera House is the home of Opera Australia, the Sydney Theatre Company and the Sydney Symphony. It is administered by the Sydney Opera House Trust, under the New South Wales Ministry of the Arts.

Day or Night is a magnificent work to watch at...

Hi savas,
I like the shot, not the best quality as it is a little grainy, but the POV is great, the view is beautiful and the exposure is very well managed
so point to that
have a nice day
C

was this one of them?... they were small man, i remember the blue hour version better... i like it anyway - and thank god i am not the only one>:P -, you are right the opera house is a magnificent work to watch, day or night... and i like the point of view you were watching it (hotel room? tower of the harbour bridge?)... the shot is noisy again, may be you should consider trying one of those filtering programmes, but the light management is good and the magic is there i think...

Savas,
Beautiful image of the iconic Sydney Opera House with very nice POV. There a dream like quality about it. Very nicely contrast and the color is well manage. Good illuminating of the light and romantic Atmophere. composition is very good. The noise level is a bit high but that add some texture to the image, so it's not really a bad thing. Thanks for sharing. Very well captured and presented. Thanks for you nice comments.

Hi Savas, I have never seen this perspective of the Sydney Opera House before. The dark parts may be a bit too grainy, but I also like the slight blur of the moving ferry in the background. Your shot has captured something of the beauty of this building. Nice one!
Regards,
Ryno
