Sculptures By The Sea 2012

I have missed out on being overseas the last few years but finally I got to spend some time at this years Sculptures by the Sea. Sculptures by the sea is an annual exhibition of sculptures from around the world and they are on show from Tamarama Beach along the coastal walk all the way to Bondi.
Some are great, some are weird but they are all interesting in their own way and make for great photos!

I went there on a Sunday afternoon first, and struggled to get any decent shots with the thousands of people battling along the path, then I went back at night but was having issues with my flash so I didnt get too many good ones then. And finally this morning I got up at 5am and headed down there for sunrise and was rewarded for my efforts!

Below are a bunch of the shots from the various day.

The Vivid Festival, Sydney Australia 2012

Sydney Harbour was transformed for a few weeks with the Vivid Festival 2012. Stunning lighting displays transformed the harbour into a visual wonderland! It took me a few attempts to get down there due to rain and immense crowds, but finally I got there on the last night and the crowds were small and the rain managed to hold off, and I finally got to test my new camera!

The attractions on show were impressive, with a selection of interactive displays, some static and then several motion lighting displays which we were amazing! Hopefully it will make a return next year for its fifth year!
