Radio Birdman's Harbour Photo

Photographer’s Note

That image of the famous Sydney Harbour, with the Bridge and the Opera House is a tribute to a band that will play that night in Milan.

This night i will go to see a concert of an old fantastic Australian band, the Radio Birdman.

It will be a reunion after many years; today they are 6 dinosaurs, but between the 1974 and the 1977 played a fantastic and powerfull garage-punk.

Hello Paolo
Beautiful colours and very interesting place. But the will of showing both the bridge and opera made not very interesting centre of the image ;).
Have a nice day.

Hi Paolo,

its a shame really about the scan because it was rather a nice shot. The really regretful thing about this is the sharpness which here came out holga-like actually. Its not a bad look, but Im imagining the original and just wishing thats what I could see.

It is an excellent shot. But I feel that there is too much of sky in the picture. I have done a workshop to crop the sky a bit. Please let me know if you like it.

Hi Paolo
The shot is good and I like the colours, in particular, although they are a bit rich. The scan has reduced the sharpness and altered the contrast somewhat which has had an impact on quality. But I still like the scene and the two main features of the Sydney skyline. TFS

Hi,
I like the colours and the sky, however I would have prefered the photo with a wider angle to prevent the bridge and most important the opera from being cut.

Hi Paolo.

A pity it is scanned because the colours and the POV are impressive. A really pity!

Bonjour Paolo,
Quel bonheur cela doit être d'assister à un opéra dans ce lieu connu du monde entier !
Merci de nous présenter, Paolo, cette vue numérisée.
Il émane de la composition un petit air sympathique.
Amitiés.

Hi Paolo,

I like the composition of this shot with the city flanked by the bridge and the opera house, great blue sky too.

Hi Paolo!
Good composition with both landmarks of this beautiful town.The color of the sea is fantastic and the reflections in the left corner are nice.It`s not a perfect shot ,but I like it because of the nice colors.

Excellent shot! Radio Birdman indeed.. now what about that 'Radios Appear" album?? :) Beautiful rich colors here too! Regards, Doug

The colours are lovely and the sky is stunning with some wonderful clouds. I like the way the majority of the image is in silhouette yet the Opera House remains in the light.

The crop on the WS eliminates the glare on the bottom left corner, which makes the image more appealing to me. Never imagine that the famous Opera House was inspired by a garage-punk group. Go aussies!

Cheers,
Enrique

Merhaba Paolo...
Wonderful colors (especially turquoise tones) and light, my friend... The point of view, the silhouettes of buildings and bridge and the city panorama are wonderful... The sky is incredible...
TFS...
Stay well..
