I think the bridge looks a bit like a landing space ship – the details in the bottom of it are just great. Also the lights of the city look beautiful – especially the reflections on the water... Very interesting and effective shot.

Besides the fact I was expecting a Note about this shot, I must say it is a great night shot, just like your previous one, wich makes me conclude that you really like night shots, Din. This one is so great, and Olli took the words from my mouth (or mouse, in this case), the bridge looks like a space ship, and this angle is superb.
Also would like to know some other details, like exposure time.
Great, thanks for the late note, Din! You surely gave me a different (never seen) angle of it.

Brilliant, original view of something that everyone has seen before. Captured with your usual amazing clarity and well timed exposure. I love it.

Great photo. The depth and the colors on the water is very effective! Well done!

Very fresh and innovating point of view. The skyline and color reflections at the end of the bridge look beautiful, and I like the detail that is visible of how the bottom of the bridge is constructed. Well done, Din!

Wow, what a way to do it, just great composed, fine light setting too. Yes, very, very well done.

Well, it's a different angle of a top shot brigde. I like the composition. Maybe the light's are a little bit overexposed, but it's still a nice shot.

Very interesting angle. And beautiful reflections of city lights. The water looks like ice, because of the long exposure time, I think. Great!

Very nice ! It is almost unreal. The bridge seems to be painted.

Grande Idéia, a composição está perfeita, o tempo de exposição ideal e a luzes de diferentes cores refletidas no rio tornam a foto única. Parabéns.

Close encounter of the third degree or something like that. You have chosen a very creativ angle and shot it well, we can really feel the weight of the bridge over our heads. And this prooves that you are down under.

An original sight and colors interesting, it is a good idea, that changes other simple sight of bridge, it is well done.

It also can look like you're looking down, standing on top of a huge building with a very smooth surface. And then there's this other huge building standing next to it with a very rough surface. The citylights is ofcourse the the ground. Oow, SCARY! ;-)

Maybe rotate/skew just a small bit counterclockwise to make the lines of the structure horizontal with the frame (at the top of the frame.) A delicate balancing act, I understand!

This is a way cool image! I visited Sydney a couple of months ago, and you certainly have captured the massiveness of the structure. The typical composition of the Harbor Bridge usually illustrates the grace of form, but rarely its sheer magnitude.

Don't understand how I could have possibly missed this one. The angle here is great and you've definitely presented a view of that harbor bridge that is rarely seen.

Intergalactical ship "Enterprise" entering Sidney...
Managing to gat so clear the structure, the lights, the reflections - GREAT WORK!

Wow! Amazing shot! Your choice of angle is unbelievably great! The details on the bridge and the reflexions are also superb!

This is an awesome shot, no commenst to add, just great.
Did you take this out of a boat?

The perspective and super wide angle is out of this world. Absolutely, a fantastic composition with a clarity that is marvellous.

This is just great shot, I saw many photos, but this idea is most original.

From this angle, it makes me imagine a scene from Star Wars, as the spaceship flybies above us. Your exposure setting is helpful to those of us trying into getting nightscene. Thank you Din.

excellent photo, a different perspective to the standard Harbour Bridge shot.

Hello Din

This looks like a bottom of a spaceship from starwars, not the underside of Harbour bridge in Sydney. Really surreal, fantastic lighting, colours and detail. Well seen and composed. Well Done Din
