One of my photographs of the fireworks display held October 2013 celebrating the Royal Australian Navy Centenary / International Fleet Review on Sydney Harbour.
The biggest Royal Australian Navy event for a century, the International Fleet Review transformed Sydney Harbour into a maritime mecca with a gathering of more than 40 warships and up to 20 tall ships, plus aerial displays and hundreds of spectator craft.
I just love playing the clowns at a fair. They are so colorful and happy. Photograph captured at a local school fair early evening.

In June 2017, I went into the City of Sydney to view firsthand the spectacular VIVID SYDNEY, a festival of light, music and ideas. This image is one of my long exposure photographs of the Sydney Harbour Bridge illuminated with purple light, reflecting the colors on the water of Sydney Harbour. The colors of the bridge were continually changing.
[From Wikipedia] The Sydney Harbour Bridge is a steel through arch bridge across Sydney Harbour that carries rail, vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian traffic between the Sydney central business district (CBD) and the North Shore. The dramatic view of the bridge, the harbour, and the nearby Sydney Opera House is an iconic image of Sydney, New South Wales, and Australia. The bridge is nicknamed The Coathanger because of its arch-based design.

My photography of the Total lunar eclipse, blood moon / super moon visible from Sydney, New South Wales, Australia on 26th May 2021. ** The moon rose in the East (bottom right corner) and proceeded in a westerly direction.
A total lunar eclipse occurred on 26 May 2021. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are exactly or very closely aligned with Earth between the other two, which can only happen at a full moon. The eclipsed moon appeared as a faint red disk in the sky due to a small amount of light being refracted through the earth's atmosphere; this appearance gives a lunar eclipse hence its nickname of a Blood Moon.
