One of the world skyline series, taken at Sydney, Australia. I would like to capture the contrast of modern skyscraper of Sydney reflected by day lights and classic structures of Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge based on 7-min long exposure in day light in order to emphasize the contrast of the objects from the abstracted sky and sea by the long-exposure.
