The State Library of New South Wales featured Christmas Projections on the Macquarie Street facade of the Mitchell Wing. This is my final look at this year's Macquarie Night Lights. A daytime view of the Mitchell Wing of the library, viewed from Shakespeare Place, can be seen here.

Very interesting...So they display colored lights and designs on buildings? Very festive
Looks as tho I certainly must visit Sydney to see this enlarged show after last year. Was surprised to see the changes at QVB, I loved using my camera there. There are not many Australian CDP blogs really, as far as a range of localities goes as from your list.
Yes Julia, there don't seem to be a lot of City Daily Photo blogs for Australia. A few of them start enthusiastically but then drop off after a while.
Wow you did a fantastic job of cataloging the light displays. I haven't been down there at night so missed that aspect of the festivities. It sure makes as difference.
J Bar: What a neat way to wrap a building.
Wow! What very festive and colorful buildings! Terrific captures! Wishing you a very Happy New Years! Enjoy!

How awesome is that! Wow, I love all the colors.
these are beautiful...so festive.
Fantastic projections! I never heard of anyone else doing this. How pretty!
...see what is in front of my house!
Awesome! Stunning! Brilliant! Wow!!! I absolutely love how they do that.
Happy New Year!
I would very much enjoy seeing that in person!
Great series of shots of the lights! Painting with light is a fascinating art. And your 12 days of Christmas are indeed different from the normal "gifts".
A good proposal of colors. I liked it.
Be well.
What a wonderful library. I've enjoyed the Macquarie lights you've featured so much.
Good display, Jim. However, what is with the AB and the portrait of George V? I don't recalll that one at all.
What a brilliant post! Thank you for visiting My Muskoka ! Be happy to send some snow! :-)
Julie, it has something to do with the Mitchell Library celebrating its Centenary in 2010. George V as monarch of Australia in 1910 was just one of the images from that time. Not sure about the AB.
That's a beautiful display of vivid colors. Well done.
I can't believe all the color. Very nice photos. Happy New Year!
I love these light shows.
Happy New Year!
Interesting display!
Magnificent lighting.
The one with the text: it looks like the text were stuck on! Amazing!
very colorful!
There seems to be no end to the ideas for light shows. The alphabet on the Library works well.
We have a CDP blog on Brisbane but it doesn't attract much interest through the CDP site.
Wow! Beautiful captures!
Cheers for the New Year!
Regards.

Magnificent! Such a good idea.
It looks always different ! phantastic building !
These colours give a magical effect to the buildings! Bravo!
Best wishes from Arona for 2010!!
Wow, that whole series is just amazing!
Wow, how colourful christmas lights/projections! Surely a great way to decorate the building during night :)
This is both amazing and fascinating to me. I would love to see something like this for myself.
Wow, I've missed the other posts, need to go back and look. These photos are spectacular. What an amazing display!
Beautiful color.
My Bangkok Through My Eyes!
gorgeous!
WOW!!! How cool is that! I would love to see this in person..how fantastic!
Julie, the letters projected on the Mitchell Library are part of an alphabet that was created to celebrate the Library's centenary
You can see more about it here:

Thanks for that Anonymous. There's some great information there on the centenary of the library.
