Vivid Sydney @ The Opera House…

Headed around through Circular Quay across to the Opera House to shoot some more of the light displays of Vivid Sydney
Note: These images (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger – so click any of the images below to see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer.
A little fisheye fun with Ana Andres with this light globe inspired piece
Ana From Within
NIKON D600 + 15.0 mm f/2.8 @ 15 mm, 1/25 sec at f/2.8, ISO 100
Beehive
NIKON D600 + 15.0 mm f/2.8 @ 15 mm, 1/160 sec at f/2.8, ISO 100
Ana had brought along her glass ball so we tried some compositions up close to the Opera House itself (the ball is like an insane fisheye lens – plus it also inverts the image viewed through it – the trick is to:
– get the right distance from the ball and the ball to the subject so it appears filling most of the ball
– focus on the image projected within the ball
– whilst also trying to include some of the “real” scene outside the ball (it will naturally be in blur because you’re generally focusing near minimum focus distance of your lens)
A Ball at the Opera
NIKON D600 + 16.0-35.0 mm f/4.0 @ 16 mm, 1/15 sec at f/4, ISO 3600
Note in this last the large white ball is actually the full moon in the sky
Operatic Ball
NIKON D600 + 16.0-35.0 mm f/4.0 @ 35 mm, 1/40 sec at f/4, ISO 6400
