Great images aa! I like them all, but the bridge and opera house images really shine. Great light on the bridge image, pleasant to look at. The B&W gives the opera house a classy feel. Great captures.
The beach image gives a nice perspective. You can clearly see it's a pretty large strip of sand.

Wow - welcome back AA! That first one is especially beautiful. Great detail, colours and lighting.

Very nice shots all. I guess the bridge is my favorite - technically excellent and nice composition.
hiccup!

I really enjoyed the bridge shot aa. That isn't the usual view of that bridge, and you included the Opera House as a bonus. The moody shot of the Opera House, and the beach are great too... John

Hi AA, You should be allowed to take more of the five-day freedom escapes. : )) You're doing excellently for Australia's already well-known attractions. Even I felt like taking a flight there for the sole purpose of shooting photos. : ) Thanks for sharing. These are very creative alternative shots to all the common touristic shots we came to see from the same icons. Yildiz

Great photos los banos, don't think I've seen any better of Sidney & have seen many. My neighbours flew down to Sidney on Wednesday to start a cruise, I'm sure they will love it there.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing. AA, As it appears, your photo at least inspired some to start their Australian coastal/regional cruise in the very short run indeed! : )) We'll do our best to follow their lead. ...hmm, time undetermined as of yet. Yildiz
