Hi Carolyn,
good to see a city-shot from Sydney Down Under. I don't see that too often here in Denmark - and if I do, it is always the Opera.
I like the photo - a strong city-scape with good vertical lines.
Best regards Peder #2294042

Colette, Pat, Shelly, Len, and Peder - thanks SO much for your kind comments on this image!! :o)

Len - Sydney is certainly one of our favourite cities, too!! You'll have to come back Downunder again soon - you must be due for another visit!! ;o)

Peder - I'm glad that you like this shot of Sydney!! It surely is one of the world's great cities!! Not sure if you have browsed my gallery or not, but if you're interested you can find more images of Sydney in there, too!! Our world-famous Opera House (designed by one of your famous Danes!) is a very popular photographic subject in Sydney, BUT, there are MANY other wonderful perspectives to be had on our wonderful city!! I hope you can come and visit Downunder one day, Peder!! :o)

Thanks again for the feedback everyone, and have a GREAT week!! :o) #2301045
