RE: Sydney Opera House - Cityscape Photography Contest Entry

in #cityscapephotography7 years ago (edited)

We've all seen photos of this iconic building. But we've never seen it captured this uniquely and beautifully!

In this photo, it looks like it never looked before. The only way I could recognize it is from its distinct shape. The perspective, the colour, the setting, the lighting are all new and brilliant.

And the sky! It's perfect for this photo.

Thank you so much for your kind words. At first i was bummed that the sun was hidden by clouds, but the more i looked at the image, i realized it shows the shape better and allows the lighting to show of its curves

Yes, good point. It's much better without the sun. And just now, I noticed how there's a bit of grey shading in the upper corners, which make the wide swath of off-white sky into a perfect frame that reflects the overall curvature of the structure.

It's almost like the Opera House is surrounded by a large halo. Not sure how you got that, or even if it was intentional. But it works a tiny wonder.
