Opera House, bench

A bench at the Overseas Passenger Terminal where you can enjoy the views across Circular Quay and Sydney Harbour. A stage for an outdoor performance in front of the Sydney Opera House steps is under construction. I was inspired by the 'A Bunch of Benches' blog.

  2. A shot with careful composition. The more I look, the more I see, line and reflection and the railing perfectly in line with the base of the opera house.

  23. VP, no worries. Feel free to post this shot on your blog. I'm adding 'benches' tags to my shots, so they are easier to find. I plan to go back and add them to all the old shots too.
