When ur in sydney it seems huge and over powering by the scale of the buildings and environment, but when you look at photos of it it never dose the cty justice

Sampdoria In reply to springeth [2006-10-02 06:28:49 +0000 UTC]

Yes, thats true though Sydney is actually one of the smallest metropolis's Ive seen, its very easy to cover leaving out the suburbs. When you see something like Shanghai, which is around 5-7 times the size of sydney, then is very difficult to regain the bearings!

One of the coolest thing is the elevated Monorail, for a good price it gets u around!

Ahhh Sydney, the city I hate most

I've seen this shot before when I've been by your gallery, though never got around to commenting on it, but now that I've bookmarked it to comment because you linked me, I can comment without forgetting. Anyway, in all honestly, it's great to see a shot of Sydney like this. Good to see a shot that isn't one of those generic Sydney Opera House or Hardbour Bridge shots with a bit of the city itself in the background. You get a real feel for Sydney from this shot. A feel of it's size.

The thing I always like about photos taken from the air and there is water around somewhere is the trails left by the boats. They always make it a little more interesting. The clouds make it seem kind of unreal, like it isn't actually a photo at all. They also add nice depth. Overall, it's quite a nice shot. The only thing I have to nitpick is the noise and the colours could be a little more vibrant. Seems a little dull in that area but other than that, great shot.

Thanks bella, I will study about the noise, I take it seriously! Its frustrating when out of 2 dds now, u get only a handful of really serious critique....

angel-obsesser [2006-02-16 16:59:40 +0000 UTC]

Getting such a clear shot from such height you have to be good! Really an interesting shot, I could keep looking at it for ages tracing all the lines and running over all the houses. Well done.

Sampdoria In reply to angel-obsesser [2006-02-17 10:31:21 +0000 UTC]

Its indeed a nice shot especially when one ends up visiting all those places in the shot on the ground.. .. I also made an overlay of this image which explains all the beautiful landmarks and places to visit just looking from this view. My sister who is an even better photographer has a similar view of Budapest, Hungaria. Cheers and have a nice day.
