The historic Moore Stairs link Macquarie Street with the Circular Quay foreshore, between two blocks of Bennelong Apartments. “Hopscotch” by Germany’s Fiona Venn and Reinhard Germar was an interactive installation for the Vivid Sydney festival. People were able to hop up and down the stairs and create a rainbow at night that displayed the full colour spectrum of light from violet blue to deep red. Precise switching and the latest sensor technology saved energy by providing light only where it was needed but also proved a challenge to photograph as many colours as possible.
It was very difficult to get a variety of colours, you've done well.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured it perfectly!
ReplyDeleteVery cool, it must look awesome in person. Great capture.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this lighting effect before...in my entire life! And I love it.
ReplyDeleteBlue Plumbago is my photo post today. Do come join me if you can find time.
Happy Monday.
Ann, it certainly was difficult to capture this with a number of colours. I experimented with leaving the shutter open for longer periods of time while people ran up and down the stairs.
ReplyDeleteLooks great. Glad you captured it because I missed most of the festival.
ReplyDeleteExcellent capture. Loved the concept of this installation.
ReplyDeleteCheers from Montreal!

ReplyDeleteI played too. Mine are here and here.

ReplyDeleteI keep thinking the colors are going to stop and then you give un another fabulous shot. I would be so busy looking at the lighting I would probably misstep and fall!!! Wonderful shot. Genie
ReplyDeleteImpressive capture. It looks moody with the figure on the stairs - almost walking on a rainbow.
