KAP on Sydney Opera House 2008 – Act III… Oct 25, 2008

I lived many years in Sydney somewhere here.I have spend many hours at the opera house and taking photos of the opera house. Breathtaking beauty.

Pierre, on your next trip, try to make it to this place across the harbour, one of the best viewpoints you'll see.

A warm THANK YOU to Pat, the security officer on duty this afternoon. Pat already gave me clearance back in February and again was very nice to authorize me an other KAP session over the Opera House.
I originally wanted to shoot right on top of the buiding but the shape and the architecture created too much turbulence.

Again, top shots. How much weight does the tele converter add, and how much view does it add.

Using the Delta, yet no white caps on the water?

I have been lived in Australia in the pas but I have had never the opportunity to see the opera house in that way. Awesome.

@ Michael, the wide angle converter gives 19 ° in 35 mm equivalent and weighs less than 100 grams; A real plus for AutokAP.
BTW I was in Brisbane on thursday did you get my flickr mail?
