Sydney skyline, Vivid Sydney, Colours of Vivid

The Sydney skyline illuminated for the annual the Vivid Sydney Festival, a festival of light, music and ideas which ran from 24 May to 10 June 2013. This view is from the Overseas Passenger Terminal looking towards Circular Quay railway station, the Cahill Expressway and the Museum of Contemporary Art, rising up to the city skyscrapers. These are just some of the colours and designs featured in "Colours of Vivid" on the Gateway Building, Sydney Harbour Marriott, Gold Fields House, Grosvenor House, Four Season Hotel and Shangri-La Hotel.

    Nice shots, Jim. Good to see the organisers were discriminating enough not to illuminate the hideous box tacked onto the Customs House.

      Yes, those extensions to the Museum of Contemporary Art do look out of place.

    Stunning shots from Vivid. I like that you focused on buildings other than the Opera House, as so many others have during the past couple weeks.
