Vivid Festival - Sydney Opera House  by onewing

Vivid Festival - Sydney Opera House

I have frantically been trying to catch up on your photos today and if I haven't got to yours yet, I promise I will try.

Thanks so much for all your lovely comments on my photos over the last few days. I am on catch up at the moment.

We have just spent a couple of days in Sydney and it has poured with rain. I am beginning to get webbed feet. It is so nice to be home again. I know now why I live at Nelson Bay and not in a city. Lovely to visit Sydney though and had a great time.

This is another photo from the Vivid Festival in Sydney. Haven't had time to take any photos today because of the dreadful weather. Winter has hit with a bang.

Gorgeous Babs. Please send the rain our way, today was lovely, still wearing shorts on my early morning run and throughout the day, no hint of winter as yet . :-)

@hermann You are welcome to some of our rain. Winter only hit on Wednesday and we have had 100 mm rain (according to our rain gauge) in the last 2 days.

@pcoulson Thanks Peter. I would have liked to have seen more of it, but unfortunately rain got in the way. Maybe next year.

@creampuff We are not used to rain like this. It is winter though and the good thing about winter in Australia is that it doesn't happen every day. ha ha.

Super night shot, Babs. Sounds like you had a great time. This looks like the ground around when I'm painting....splash, drip, knock over.

Didn't get to see vivid but this shot wraps it up so well! A truly gorgeous shot! I second the winter thing as well, as soon as as it hit winter so did the rain and cold weather! x

I love the affect they have given the opera house really interesting. Looking forward to seeing it next year went we come over for a bit of a walkabout in Oz.

Wow that must have been amazing to see. Super shot Babs, love the colours.

Wonderful capture, vivid indeed. Glad to hear you had a nice all be it wet time!

Great night shot

It beats me how they can project so much onto the Opera House. I would prefer it to be left white during the day.
June 8th, 2014  
So cool! I'd love to see this in real life some day!
June 8th, 2014  
That must've been quite something to see Babs. Terrific night capture.

@lafish @kathiecb @lilminimonka @happypat @lpot1985 Thanks so much. The lights and patterns projected onto the buildings were amazing. Must go again next year too.

@neatz Thanks Anita.

@scarybird The Vivid Festival is brilliant. When will you be coming out to Oz? You will have to come up to Nelson Bay too.
June 8th, 2014  
@paulaw @dianeburns @kerristephens @kwind @golftragic @eyesmile @888rachel Thank you all so much. I will definitely be going again next year and hopefully it won't be so wet then.
June 8th, 2014  
@ethelperry Thanks Ethel. It was fantastic to see. The light show starts at 6 pm. We only got to see some of the projections on the buildings though as rain stopped play so to speak. The different patterns and images are fantastic.

@onewing We are not sure what time of year, most likely September'ish which I think is your spring. Such a big place and so much to see we need to start planning a route !
