New Statue

A new statue called "Ancient Feelings" has been unveiled at Circular Quay located on the lawn in front of MCA (Museum of Contemporary Art). The three metre tall golden bronze statue will be on display until April 2026 as the first piece in an annual series. It is a fictional representation of a black woman designed to spark conversation about representation

But my eye can't help but be drawn to that iconic building ! Beautiful scene

[Andy Oz]

Funny how I was just reading about Kennedy Space Center and now all my eye can 'see' in that picture is a rocket (flag) with smoke billowing away (OH) as it launches... 😄

Great framing. Like the way the lower left edge of the palm fronds mirror the shape of the trees behind.

super juxtaposition Kate

[Madeleine Pennock]

Lovely well thought out image where you are photographing someone else's art but making the picture your own. The juxtaposition of the sculpture and the iconic Sydney Opera House works very well!

A lovely sculpture. I like how you included the opera house in the background.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I like how she's gazing out over the water toward the opera house as if remembering what it looked like before all the structures were there. And the details on the hair are quite spectacular. Great shot!
