Christmas -1

My theme for now is things of a Christmas nature.
This is the tree in the QVB.

Here’s the 2016 Swarovski Christmas tree by numbers.

More than 82,000 Swarovski crystals.
The crystals travelled over 16,000 kilometres from Wattens, Austria to Sydney, Australia to sit under the iconic QVB dome.
65,150 individual LED twinkle lights.
3,200 branches.
6,400 rose buds.
The star on top is 2.2 metres wide.
The tree is 26 metres tall (and is the tallest tree in Sydney).
Weighs 6.5 tonnes.
It took 44 hours to install.
102 people to install.
1,000 hours to prepare the crystals.
10,000 hours to design, project manage and manufacture.

I love the angle of this! A gorgeous tree and I love the dome ceiling, it must be fabulous even without the tree.

I wonder how tall is that tree?

[PhylM-S]

Ooow... like your angles heightening the depth and your pov high lights it nicely! Creates expectations!

Great shapes and colours. Love the big curve and those bright colours on the walls and windows. Fab POV.
