NYE in Sydney, Australia

you can just spot the Opera House hidden around this area...

love this colors on the dark sky

love the reflection in the water

@ Bradley's Head - Sydney Australia - fireworks at midnight !

looks even better when viewed large.

Fantastic shot with the boats and water reflection.

Thanks again everyone... I was a bit worried about my view being obscured by the trees. In the end I think you're right - It sort of adds to the Australian feel of the photo.

I really like this picture, was this picture taken on New Years ? I have seen many pictures that have displayed this same type of thing, but are not always from New Years.

vlad says:

hi Alysa - yes the photo is taken on New Years. Sydney normally has 2 sets of firework shows. One's at 9pm for the kiddies and the big one's at 12 just as the New Year starts. This photo's taken towards the end of the midnight fireworks show (which by the way is about 10-15 minutes)
